They were all like that and yet we were always taught that knees had to be clamped together at all times!

Please take a moment to marvel at William’s latest joke.

Did you hear about the blood-sucking tomb-dwelling parasites who had a massive argument?
The police were called to a disturbance caused by the crypt tick cross words

My history teacher was called Pocock. A very clever man who suffered greatly at the hands of his pupils although not, strangely, because of his name. We had a Miss Sidebottom as well so he was up against stiff competition.

If anyone would like to see a photo of a Blueberry Dwarf Hamster, while marvelling at the fact that such a thing as a Blueberry Dwarf Hamster exists, this is your lucky day.

Stay tuned for a Raspberry Gerbil and the lesser-known Gooseberry Guinea Pig.

Do our bums look big in this?

My mother worked with someone called Miss Titball which my father pointed out was a doubly singular name!

One of my mates a long time ago worked with a salesman called Glasscock they used to call him Shatterknackers behind his back.

I was struggling to think what it reminded me of!

They’re talking on Radio 4 about the experience of having the surname Mycock. I once had a meeting at work with two men called Alcock and Grocock. What on earth possessed them to go into business together?

Because that’s how children sometimes behave.

My sister has been making a mouse school based on her experiences as a student facilitator. I think she’s caught the body language of disaffected youth perfectly.

Not again! 😬

As someone with a dodgy knee, those stairs bring me almost to tears!

“Alright, here’s the cash. Just hand me the weed quickly.”

Rudgate.

I’ve had worse.

He’s like a rolling medieval hedgehog! Gathering grapes!

Isn’t it just!

The hedgehogs, I mean 🦔 🦔

Came second in the local Catholic Church quiz. From the conversation, they are very annoyed with Trump for dissing the Pope…. and if you’ve lost Clifford, then heaven forfend. Saw two hedgehogs loitering outside our yard. Looking plump and cheerful.

Love this description from Len Deighton’s Ipcress Files:

“His profusion of long lank yellow hair hung heavily across his head like a Shrove Tuesday mishap.”

Such a noble beast!

Post the best photo you’ve taken of your pet

Good job he didn’t sign up for the full poverty, chastity and obedience option!

A white garment with some kind of food stain. Humiliating.

A pair of dirty hands rest on a car engine. Rough, tough, cool.

Here is an easy solution:

Food stains are humiliating, as they suggest you're a little baby who can't feed themselves.

Oil stains, such as those you'd get from working on your car, suggest you're tough, independent, and skilled.

Thus, simply cover your food stains with used motor oil.
