Monday's Funnies



Dear Family and Friends, Today was a bit bumpy. We had a small leak on a radiator; this morning we had no hot water. The system had depressurised and the boiler had shut down. Our builder friend got it going again, but the radiator is leaking again. The heating man should be here in the morning; meanwhile, it's bowls to catch the water. The builder did several small jobs for us while he was here, and now it's tea time, and the day is gone! However, you still get funnies –






















In 1959, I was in the 4th year at high school.

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!

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!

Arrrr!













I'm guessing that this is a statue!














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