If I ever need to do nibbles for an event, the two on the middle line are on the menu.
They are rather endearing, aren't they?If I ever need to do nibbles for an event, the two on the middle line are on the menu.
Good grief.
What next?
This country's gone to the dogs.
Cheese rolling without the cheese, or the hill? Just a load of people stood in a field (2 metres apart of course) looking at a photo of cheese?
Karaoke without the music, or the singing? (Actually I'd like that)
Eisteddfod without the Eist or the stedd or the fod?
Self-proclaimed ‘Big Bird Bandits’ return $160,000 costume to Adelaide circus
Two men seen leaving the stolen Sesame Street costume with apology note were unable to be located by police dog squad
A $160,000 Big Bird costume has been returned after being stolen from a circus in Adelaide by the self-proclaimed “Big Bird Bandits”.
The 213cm-tall, bright yellow costume reportedly made of ostrich feathers, was found dumped near the south-western end of the circus, with a note saying “no harm” had come to “Mr Bird”...
... The note, which is signed off by “The Big Bird Bandits”, begins by offering an apology for taking the costume, and explained that the “bandits” were just trying to cheer themselves up.
“We had no idea what we were doing, or what our actions would cause.
“We were just having a rough time and were trying to cheer ourselves up,
“We had a great time with Mr Bird, he’s a great guy and no harm came to our friend.”
Just before signing off, the writers apologised for being “such a big birden”.

I worked with someone like that, the only difference was that he did turn up but nobody knew what he did. He just wandered around carrying a clipboard. When he was retiring someone said to him "What exactly do you do?"Italian hospital employee accused of skipping work for 15 years

Considering what a terrible programme idea it is, I think your initial reaction is probably closer to the truth.
In fact they should replace it with a show called "Who gives a crap?" - A history of Britain's sewage systems hosted by....er....I dunno...let's go with Danny Dyer.
I bet it'd do better in the ratings.
I wonder if that show is produced by Peter Bazalgette, whose ancestor is famous for his sewers?Considering what a terrible programme idea it is, I think your initial reaction is probably closer to the truth.
