Trust me, that wasn't the worst bit.
I have neither the time nor the crayons to explain why you are wrong.

Was just viewing the Scottish News on the BBC website and came across the headline, "Emu on the loose after Care Home escape."

Thinking, "Right enough, Emu must be getting on now, I couldn't help but imagine the chaos that bird would cause."

But it wasn't what I thought.

I may not have gone where I intended to go, but I think I have ended up where I needed to be.

Ta' , cultural context is always appreciated.  :)

The original article states, "Groundsman Dennis Agnew bought the bird and a female companion a couple of days ago...".
I commend Mr. Agnew on his forthright admission and surmise he was being well distracted when the bird made good its escape.

I knew Rod Hull had died.....But I hadn't realised that it was THAT long ago !

I like Billy Connolly on Parkinson. He grabbed emu and said words to the effect "you fuxk me about and I'll break your neck and his arm."

My day today
Standing under the wing of an RAF Lysander at Shuttleworth, teaching 11 year olds about Morse code and how to use an Enigma machine.

Doesn't pay many bills, but I LOVE museum work.

Count me out - OFSTED will probably hound you for not flogging more Maths and English into them in order to destroy their joy and imagination. The country needs a subservient workforce to make the rich richer. How dare you make education fun!

This Brazilian car commercial's production values and it's devotion to the old D&D cartoon are kind of out of this world.

Took a days leave to listen to cricket and colour in wooden 1809 French.
