The Official Nonsense Thread

[Caspin]

That must have been horrific to watch. Looking at the guy, I'm less worried about the beard - he looks completely dead behind the eyes, doesn't he. Poor duckies.

I was reading about that poor guy in Edinburgh whose house went up in flames with his pets stuck inside. That would give me nightmares till the end of my days.

What was everyone's first pet? When I was a kid I had a pet rabbit. He was absolutely humungous (or perhaps that's just how I remember him, because of course I was relatively small). When he died my parents didn't want to upset me, so told me that he'd got too big for us to look after so they'd sent him to live on a farm. This didn't make sense to me at all and for ages I kept worrying that he'd be shot by Elmer Fudd.

Very sunny day here - I think I might go out for a walk. The only problem is that trees will take the opportunity to throw pollen onto me and by the time I get home I will be sneezing my head off. The "gardeners" are here, up to their usual trick of pretending to mow the lawn but actually just strolling around with a strimmer. It's a shame because before they arrived there were dozen and dozens of starlings eating worms and I was quite enjoying listening to their mad chat.

I'm off work next week and am going on some exciting trips. First to see Stonehenge and the environs. Don't fear, I shall take picture for you.
