970 - TALON

RonaLd hAd inheriTed a large, but neglected house from a distant relative. On his first visit he had a tour of the property, surveying what was worth working on and what wasn't. He phoned the local Indian restaurant and ordered a balti takeaway for his lunch before checking in more detail some things that had caught his attention during the morning. The entrance hall had been constructed as a vault but he was highly suspicious that it might be unsafe now. Hanging in the hallway was a vicious-looking stuffed golden eagle. The claws of the bird were very menacing with a long talon on each of the 4 claws of a leg. "I hope that's okay - I'd like to keep it", thought Ronald.
