Five Children and It2004

Cyril:
Good evening, Madam. We're looking for our Uncle Albert. We are...

Martha:
Five children? Oh, my goodness! But you're not due till Friday!

Cyril:
Today is Friday.

Martha:
It is? But I have a goose in the oven. Goose is Thursdays. Oh, never mind. Come in. Come in. Come on, come on. Tuesday's duck, Wednesday's duck, Thursday's goose. Now put your cases down. It's duck, duck, goose! We must have had Wednesday on Tuesday and Monday on Sunday. [sighs] Well, it's just one day, I suppose. Last year we lost October. It's not an easy thing to do, you know, lose a whole month. I'll get you some towels, and tell your Uncle you've arrived.
