YUCH!!!

And double yuck just watched Mr Bean's new holiday film. Awesome - especially him eating the Langoustines - looked like something from Alien.

If it's got more than 4 legs or less than 2 don't eat it!!!

As they say in the southern USA when they break them in two " pinch some tail and suck some head" The wife always has a funny expression on her face when I say that.

Cowboys and Indians

COWBOY WHISPERER

Cowboy: "That your dog?"

Indian: "Yep."

Cowboy: "Mind if I speak to him?"

Indian: "Dog no talk."

Cowboy: "Hey dog, how's it going?"

Dog: "Doin' all right."

Indian: (Look of shock!)

Cowboy: "Is this Indian your owner?" (Pointing at the Indian)

Dog: "Yep."

Cowboy: "How's he treating you?"

Dog: "Real good. He walks me twice a day, feeds me great food and takes me to the lake once a week to play."

Indian: (Look of total disbelief)

Cowboy: "Mind if I talk to your horse?"

Indian: "Horse no talk."

Cowboy: "Hey horse, how's it going?"

Horse: "Cool."

Indian: (Extreme look of shock!)

Cowboy: "Is this your owner?" (Pointing to the Indian)

Horse: "Yep."

Cowboy: "How's he treating you?"

Horse: "Pretty good, thanks for asking, he rides me, brushes me down often and keeps me in a lean-to to protect me from the weather."

Indian: (Look of total amazement)

Cowboy: "Mind if I talk to your sheep?"

Indian: "Sheep lie.

And here is the moving version - British comedy at it's very best!!!

Bloody classic Codders, I have it on tape.

And whilst on the subject - for our cousins across the pond who may not have seen it - Dad's Army. There's loads of complete episodes posted on Youtube - many I haven't seen before - bit before my time!!!

CLASSIC British humour!!!

Also "On the buses" - "It ain't half hot mum" and many others - Dad's Army are the best though!!!

There's also a Yank series called "All in the Family".
