In the absence of enjoying real sprouts we'll have to settle for this amusing story in the news: Farting gorillas force Brussels sprouts off zoo's Christmas menu.

Over on his blog, Terry Virgo posed the following question about this picture:"If you were around in 1919 (just before prohibition started) and came upon the following poster………
I mean seriously, would you quit drinking?"
I think I would probably start drinking!
Leave a caption for this photo in the comments bit and we'll post the best one. No swearing and nothing filthy, thank you!
Hope it brightens up your Friday and makes you laugh as much as it did me.

I had to laugh when I saw this article on the BBC website: 'No God' slogans for city's buses. My amusement stems from three aspects of this 'advertising campaign'. Firstly, I love the use of the word 'probably'. One always needs to hedge one's bets just in case.
I received a fixed penalty notice this morning for speeding. At first I was cross about having been caught, but then I looked a little closer at the notice and realised that the registration is for a car I've never owned. I also saw that the fine could be viewed online, so I went online for a look and nearly fell of my chair laughing. Clearly that's not me! and my wife is a whole bunch better looking than that!!
A friend recently brought this to our attention..
Two recent court cases, have earned the attention of newspaper readers in South Africa
1. One person was fined R1 000 for not having a TV license.
2. Another was released on bail for R500 after being arrested for murder.
The moral of this South African story:
If you do not have a TV license and the inspector comes round, kill him.
You'll save R500.

Joel is surprising and delighting us at the moment with his 'maturity' - dare I put it in inverted commas?!! He certainly reminds us that he is very definitely 5 years old and not a toddler as he was last time we looked! Two class examples from recent days:
(1) Mummy, daddy, that boy's got chicken pox (spoken at 100 decibels whilst walking past a very unfortunate acne'd teenage boy in the Nature Reserve!)
(2) Mummy, daddy (whilst jumping on the trampoline), I've got a good joke. (This should be interesting think m and d whilst preparing to laugh "hilariously"..). What's small, green and sticky? (We don't know Joel.... this could be gruesome!) A frog swimming in jelly! (All delivered with perfect comic timing - we did laugh hilariously this time because it was really funny!!)
This could be why his teacher often says that he has the class in stitches - we have a little showman on our hands. Oh dear!

Easter is the most important of festivals for Christians and as such we celebrate Easter in a low-key but meaningful way, taking time to remember that by giving up His life, Jesus opened the way for us to have life and a genuine relationship with the Father. For us this is a very important time of year, much more so than Christmas or any other festival.
Bethany at The “Blog” of “Unnecessary” Quotation Marks has posted one of my pictures: How Personal?Do pay her a visit and enjoy more silliness of a similar ilk.
We'll leave the spelling mistake for you to spot.
See more of this kind of silliness at Signs Of The Times.
Any suggestions should be submitted via the comments link below ;-)

We're back from our holiday in Boggams Baai, a lovely small seaside village without a single shop or business. Very peaceful!We'll post something meaningful later but thought you might enjoy this sign which we saw at the Outeniqua Transport /Railway Museum George.
The BBC carried this brilliant story today about a 77 year old pensioner in Devon who has a bit of a wind problem.Maurice Fox was quoted as saying: "I am a loud farter, but there is no smell"Inevitably, there was no-one from the club available for comment.
Check out the full story: Flatulence ban for club pensioner
This article really made my day.
PS. Whilst there have a look at The poetry of bodily functions
