It's #UKPunday, a celebration of the love the British have of wordplay and paronomasia.

And as an English illustrator of funny pictures, who loves wordplay, I feel that I need to join in.

Someone broke the fan in the shop's reduced items section. That certainly took the wind out of their sales.

Bah! Can't believe I didn't realise it was #UKpunday yesterday and missed the chance to repost any of my nonsense videos. Here's a shortie in belated consolation (one I did in tribute after the untimely death of The Specials' Terry Hall).

I can't afford to clean the houses of French impressionist painters.

I'm not maid of Monet


Was having a massage recently when a prince rode in on his horse, picked me up and carried me off into the sunset.

Not quite the happy ending I was expecting.

- Look, your Ninja Turtle antibacterial sanitiser has run out.
- My cool hand gel? Oh.
- I'm pretty sure that's Raphael.

I look after plant pots and hanging baskets for celebrities, which means I tend to shrub holders with the rich and famous.

A couple more oldies, for #UKPunDay

When the government issues a new decree, I like to record it in writing.
Diktat?
No, in a notebook.

Apparently you're not allowed to say what went wrong with Hal in 2001: A Space Odyssey.
It's PC gone mad.

I Don't Like Pundays

Can't afford to get my Jimi Hendrix guitar from America because of the across the pond tariff.

A double dose from the archive, as it's #UKPunDay

When I sell fake treasure maps I get an old girlfriend to identify potential victims.
Ex spots the mark.

And you just KNOW that the ladies going to the party will all dress up as Eva Perón.
Oh really?
Yes. It's an Evita ball.

All of Wodehouse's works were PG apart from the ones by Barbara

Pun my word, the BBCR4 Today team have been doing their bit (and some really shouldn't have bothered, Nick...) for #UKPunDay. It was claimed that punning goes right back to the ancient Egyptians.
I Sphinx not.

Was desperately trying to get a unit of electrical resistance to rent my flat but they kept saying no. Looks like I’ll have to send the boys round….

You can’t make an ohm let without breaking a few legs #UKPunDay

My brother started working for Mecca at the beginning of 2023.
I wonder how that's bingoing.

I struggle to eat burnt bread.
I’m black-toast intolerant.

Not long til #UKPunDay (tomorrow) when I compete in the UK Pun Championships as part of Leicester Comedy Festival. Even going to wake up early to be interviewed (around 8.50am) on Radio Scotland (92–95 FM and 810 MW) so it's gonna be quite a full day!

How did I not know it was #UKPunDay?!

I guess it's because it's foggy outside. I nearly mist it.

I was going to buy a Norman Wisdom DVD but it was too expensive and I had to get a Ruby Wax one instead. Turns out the price of Wisdom is above Ruby's #UKPunDay
