Weekend Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, We had a rude awakening when the Colchester Hospital called at 10:30 and moved H's appointment forward, so we had to go right then! The procedure took longer than expected, but all was well. When we left the hospital, the temperature had rocketed. We burned our rear ends on the car seats, and were thankful when the climate control kicked in. Home just before 1400 for a snack lunch and then more of 'The Mentalist'. We finished series 3 and are now on series 4. Now for your weekend funnies, which I hope will give you joy!

Hmm, Pikachu is quite cuddly!

Thursday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, It was another sunny day, but with a stiff breeze. No walks today, as I had to attend an eye clinic in Colchester. Matt drove me, as I had to have drops in my eyes and was not allowed to drive home. Back before lunch with a procedure booked for September. Now my eyes are focusing again so I can compose tonight's blog. Please enjoy them!

























I dreamt of being able to do this – I never could!














Juxtaposition!














Sloth joins in the exercises!














Match ignition at ultra-high speed shutter!













Is it stuffed? - I very much hope so!












Novel, a bike rack on a bike!














Only inches to spare. Warship in the Panama Canal!















Old, but still beautiful!















Underwater wickerwork – who knew?
















Easy in zero gravity!














They can find food anywhere!














Too many guns in America! – They're even arming the raccoons













Not a day to go for a swim!















Arctic fox? Nah!















Double skydive over either Egypt or AI!
















I am being followed, but I guess he's on a bike!















Fake! Although it looks like 'The Old Man of Hoy!















Juxtaposition 2!














GT sports sofa!














The smallest and the largest!












Tibbles is that really you?












Nobody is as hard as he is!














They have the moves!

Wednesday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today was forecast to be cooler. I walked to the beach, and the sun was so strong, I could only sit for a couple of minutes and then had to head for home. I had a trip to the pharmacy, the filling station and the post office. That was enough excitement for one day, and in the pm we were again watching 'The Mentalist'. It is quite gory, but there is plenty of humour too! Now for yet another package of fun stuff sent directly to you!



























1964 - Really? That long ago?













No names!













It's always about the money!!!














I know that it's been hot, but..............!
















Oops!















They must be male!














It's a mess, but strangely I like it!
















Poor Goddess has sprung a leak!














I presume that the giant bong is for demonstration purposes only!















Good work chaps!













Towser takes a selfie!















Hmmm!














The Romans used them as guard dogs!















Froggy has a passenger!














When they say 'longhorn', they really mean 'long-horned'!














Towser disapproves of his human watching TV!
















Candyfloss in bulk!














It is hoped that they are tame ones!














Swoosh!














Not sure, maybe jet boats!
















Tibbles is relieved!













I suspect that the dent was already there!














Not too keen on the candleabra!













Tibbles is pleased to see his human!












No, it's not Big Brother, but it could make you go crosseyed!
