Thursday's Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, After the procedure yesterday, now that the anaesthetic has worn off, I am just a tad wilted today. I therefore stayed indoors. and did as little as possible. I had been warned not to do anything strenuous for a couple of days. Say no more! It doesn't prevent me, however, from going into cyberspace on your behalf to gather together sufficient material to create tonight's blog. Please enjoy!

The Royal Marines Orchestra is fantastic!

Sorry! Couldn't resist!

Giant stamp!

I think that's an Aquacar!

Tibbles has a special bed!

(Good job he can't read!)

No surprise there then!

Someone has far too much time on their hands!

A man's house is his castle—in this case, literally!

Oh! It's a two-headed dragon coming over the hill!

Yup, definitely wide!

The dolphins join in the water sports!

Clever leaf art!

Coin in the slot, R2D2!

Come on, Orang—give her a hug!

You can run but you can't hide!

I have no words for this!

A detachment of the Finnish army!

Big Bird demonstrated the latest model!

Oh! Treacle tart! Cannot resist!

I can only guess that's the McSomething tartan!

Don't show off with sparklers—they can bite!

I bet you can't repeat that!

Midweek Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, Today was a bit unusual. I walked to the beach as usual, but it was so hot I immediately turned tail and headed home. Late morning we were at The Care Centre in Colchester, where I went 'under the knife'! Only a minor surgery; it was swift and painless. I was out in 15 minutes, and we didn't even have to pay for parking! Good old NHS—don't knock it! Now for a few more pictures just for you!

My kind of pooch!

Granddad strutting his stuff! PS It isn't me!!!

You are braver than me!!!

Karate but with fire!

Makes a change from a heavy metal fan!

Accident waiting to happen!

We haven't seen this meme guy for a while!

Novel loo roll holder!

I don't think you really wanted do that!

It looks a little scary, but this happens all the time, often from a great height!

Having retired, Lord Vader has to keep himself busy!

Gru-inspired swing!

Spot the interloper!

That's about 45 degrees; just a couple more and you're finished, pal!

Interesting pencil art!

(Someone has too much time on their hands,

and the key to the stationery cupboard!)

Horse racing on snow? - Wow!

He looks cuddly, but to him you are just protein!

I couldn't decide whether this is glass or ice!

Colourful cave!

Snow bed? - At the moment some would welcome it!

Excuse me, is that dress made of strawberry flavoured toffee?

Sorry, but your trainers look weird!

I'm not sure, but I think I remember this from an old Elvis movie!

There is an inevitability here!

Tuesday's Funnies

Dear Family and Friends, It was another very hot day. I wimped out and stayed indoors, although I did do my exercises and a little vacuuming upstairs. PM, we are now on 'The Mentalist' series five. Around 5pm I took the rubbish out, and at the front of the house it was so hot, I found it hard to breathe! Now I have done some excavating 'down there' and think that I have had reasonable success. You will be the judges!
