Multicolored creations of varying shapes and sizes filled the skies like beautiful birds darting and dancing. As the strong winds gusted against the kites‚ a string kept them in check。 Instead of blowing away with the wind‚ they arose against it to achieve great heights.

Michael McIntyre “Ian I’m on train” commentary Michael McIntyre is seen as camp‚ slightly oriental‚ straight guy with a family.
