Just for Fun

0 Conversations



I don't understand Formula 1. Stooby and I were travelling out to the shops when the car in front of us starting swerving to the side of the road. Running up the grass verge, and looking like someone with a death wish was driving it. Stooby was swearing away about the driver, and making strange comments about the drivers driving. Yet on Sunday, he watched cars veering onto the grass, swerving from side to side and passing people on corners etc., and he was encouraging it... MEN!!!

JOKE OF THE WEEK


A man was on a walking holiday in Ireland. He became thirsty so decided to stop at a little cottage and ask for something to drink. The lady of the house invited him in and served him a bowl of soup by the fire. There was a wee pig running around the kitchen, running up to the visitor and giving him a great deal of attention.


The visitor commented that he had never seen a pig this friendly. The housewife replied: "Ah, he's not that friendly. That's his bowl you're using."

FUN ON H2G2


I enjoy browsing pages on H2G2, so I thought that I would bring your attention to some of the fun researcher written pages I have come across on my travels.



Vah! Denuone latine loquebar? Me ineptum. Interdum modo elabitur. Don't know what I am talking about? Then go and see Biedermann and his rather brilliant guide entry called,'Handy Latin Phrases'. That will see you right, and make you laugh I think.
