Sunday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today was again mild with clouds and sun. I walked to the beach, and on my return I was glistening! I did a few minor chores but was frustrated in the garden. I swept the leaves; the wind blew them away. I swept in the opposite direction; the wind changed and blew them away again. I managed in the end but gave up after that! Now I have endeavoured to collect together the newest and funniest pictures that I could find, I very much hope that you enjoy them too!








Is being in the way the whole time!






Tonight, it's Hawaii!































Attitudes change!













And they work on them live at 250,000 volts!















How does he get that into the camper?














Even tank drivers need a waffle!














He will either be the world's strongest man or – dead!













Hi tech mower!












You can't win, pal!














I guess that he's the biker's sergeant major!













A Delftware loo. I remember auctioning one years ago; 
I remember it sold rather well!














Novel rocket lamp made from old bits!














Daddy, please, can I have a horse???













Ah! The old Marilyn trick!













Meet the super soaker!














Tibbles has joined up!














A scuba wedding!














It's not the fruit - it's those ears!!!











Not all soldiers are butch!













It's almost the end!













A likely tale!












Let's play ball, or maybe not!

Saturday's Funnies




Dear Family and Friends, Today is 'International Talk Like a Pirate Day. I therefore fly the Jolly Roger on my flagpole. See below. All say, "Arrrrr!" It is also my 83rd birthday, so I have been having a lazy time and am being spoiled by my Lady Pirate! I have arranged things a little differently today.




We are all being bombarded with AI now, and I wanted to show you this, which was made by a very clever computer artist about 12 years ago. I think it's beautiful; I hope that you do too! No AI!



VanGogh

















































Arrrr!













I'm guessing that this is a statue!














She's making some sort of statement, like the scales, though!














And your point is???














It's called bull skiing!













At least they are enthusiastic!














A cheese market in Holland, possibly Alkmaar.
Yes, they do really run!















For auction, the Ratmobile!














I guess you expect us to be frightened!













Using Tibbles in vain!















Yup!














If I walked in here, I would immediately lose the urge!















A clever way to hide ugly tanks!














Really???












Typical!













I think that under that lot is a spider crab!













Handy parking place!











We love grey furniture!












Careful on that old box; there may be splinters!













Not at all gallant!

Weekend Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, It was a mixture of clouds and sun, but it stayed dry. It was health centre again today for a dressing change; it was early, so I had time to walk to the beach on our return. I then earned a brownie point or two vacuuming the stairs. PM, we had a visit from an old friend with a card and present for my birthday. She couldn't come tomorrow, the actual day, as she is away for the weekend. Quivering with anticipation, the day will soon be here! Now for your funnies!


















Cacophony, but in a nice way!














We know how you feel, Britannia!
















An old meme with current overtones!















Not for me!















Wood elf swing!














Dangerous, but the Harwich kids do it in the harbour!














That's new - a Hello Kitty fire extinguisher













Here's me looking at you!













Rare albino, we saw one at Leeds Castle!















Practising for Mars?
What a waste of money!













Vessels or vehicles???















Hey Ratty, you do know what it is!















You can't make a ship's gun cuddly!














Down he went!













New bin lady on the round!















If it's where I think, it may be a runway!













Turn of phrase!














Oooh!












Pardon?















Was this made like that, or was his head knocked off?















I really don't like green paint!












Whoops!
