    They should move far from the tree so as not to blind the others and to tan. Cute and clever story!

    I just love "Fat chance"!! Good take on it. I'm not allowed to sit in the sun, either, so I'm glad there's a tree.

    I think they need MORE than just a tan to help them out, the poor dears...
    Funny one this week. Thanks for sharing. Cheers!
