I would like the whole King Arthur thing to be true.

And I'd like the Loch Ness monster to be a possibility too.

I wish that the legend of the Ibo, or Igbo, captives were true.
Perhaps in their afterlife, they ARE back in Africa.

They have inspired generations by their brave defiance, like the ancient Jews of Masada.

Dear Puddingmouse, you get to be a sphynx, if I can sprout wings at will and fly whenever I want. Pretty feathered Angel wings, not depressing bat wings.

Quetzalcoatl, the Flying Serpent god worshipped by the Aztecs!
Wouldn't it be spectacular to see him flying across the sky?!
Scary, but thrilling!

Like Quetzalcoatlus! Except that was real.

Can you just imagine a Pterosaur as tall as a Giraffe with a 12 metre wingspan? The size of a small plane yet only as heavy as a large human?

I'd love it.

Maybe I could ride on it and be the next "Taruk-Makto". Image

It would probably strain with the added weight though and wouldn't fly well.

Just thinking rationally is all....

I go into 'Science Mode' whenever Dinosauria, Pterosauria or Plesiosauria are mentioned.
