Morning Directors Of The Bored.
I hope you had a better weekend than Catherine Calderwood!
Everybody seems to have an opinion on that one, so I won’t add mine to the chorus. Besides, aren’t we supposed to be avoiding crowds right now?
I bet you, at around 8.05pm last night, someone in your house turned round and said “Well, I thought the colour was nice on her….”
Her Majesty The Queen addressed the nation for only the 5th time (outside of just after The Top Of The Pops Christmas Special).
As always, I have some outstanding content curated lovingly for your pleasure, and, most importantly, laughter. And when you do enjoy it, please pass it on to a pal or ten.
Read | Love | Share.
Thank you.
First of all a reminder of why we do this. The object is to make laughs spread around the globe quicker and for longer than Coronavirus.
To put a smile on your face and a giggle in your day even when you thought it wasn’t there for the taking.

It’s all coming up, like I say, after a reminder of why we do this….
I feel like I’ve worked you over before landing an uppercut.
So, here, have this. It’s just supercool.
The laughs are coming, I promise. In fact, if you want to, please, scroll down – they’re always towards the end of the blog, but I like to do a few other things first, like tell you about anything useful in this Coronavirus period.
I’ve stuck this in the “Useful” section operating under the assumption you’ve got a cement mixer, you know what you’re doing, and you’ll do it safely. So, if you also have a long sturdy plank, loads of space and a couple of garden chairs, you might be able to set this up too.
I take absolutely no responsibility if the thing falls over or explodes and your kid ends up looking like Han Solo in the freezer block.
Now, obviously the location of this next story from Maryland makes it too far away to be a practical version for ourselves, but I serve it up by way of example hoping the idea may germinate.
Read the tale of The Wine Delivery Dog here, or watch the tail below.
And THIS from John Krasinski is brilliant. In terms of ‘the feels’ it’s better than anything Hollywood’s trotted out this year. It’s exactly what we’re trying to do with this blog in video format, except he’s got more resources and knows loads of famous people!
And from ‘The Useful’, to ‘The Unusual’. As lockdown continues, we’ve noticed increasingly odd, erratic behaviour from both humans and animals, and bring it to you here in ‘World Of The Weird.’
Two things on this next video. One – I’m not sure the other team is socially distant enough from the opposition or each other, although I suppose they could all be from the same household having their allotted one hour of daily exercise. Two – They say the dog’s talented. I’m not so sure. Seems very limited to just the Dig stroke from what I can tell from this footage.
You know sometimes you make unusual friends when you’re on holiday? The kind of folk you maybe wouldn’t hang about with ordinarily, but you go with it because they’re in the neighbouring caravan at the same time….
I tell you this every day. “People. Are. Amazing”
Thank God everyone is safe indoors….
Here come the funnies!
Poor Hamish. He’s just an ickle Polar Bear cub in Kincraig who doesn’t quite get Face Time yet. He’ll probably work it out before Gran though.
I feel like I should be Chris Tarrant or Clive James for this next one because it’s clearly from foreign TV. Not the sort of thing we’d air here just after the Queen.
Hang on, here comes Janey Godley.
Oh, and by the way, just while I remember – to all the people moaning about home haircuts, be thankful it grows you shower of miserable scumbags!
If you’re working from home, and taking countless video calls – this is for you.
I used to have an Irish dog who’d have done that all day. He was a Box Setter.
And speaking of dogs here comes Janey Godley again. No wait, that sounded better in my head…
And now, today’s ‘News In Brief.’
You know we always finish with some music.
Just watch.
Stay safe x
