Sunday May 3rd #LaughterSpreadsFaster

Morning, how are you?

Sundays are still lazier in our house, so I feel I have the time to ask.

Apologies for not blogging yesterday, but I suppose everyone’s entitled to a day off. Regardless, I feel guilty when I do it with the blog, because I don’t like letting you down, especially the day after our most travelled and successful post to date.

I have literally no clue what was so special about yesterday’s post in comparison to anything else we’ve done to date – if I had, I’d be doing it every day, 3 times as much as the day before – but thank you for checking out the blog.

Yesterday, was spent assembling a new barbecue. It’s official, I’ve hit peak Dad. Today, as is so typical, it’s not the best weather, certainly not ideal for a barbecue, so despite the fact I’m desperate to try it, I’m stuck indoors instead.

That’s Scotland for you.

Eventually we get fed up of it, and do whatever it is we want to anyway, hence the North East Scotland commonality of a gentleman motoring along in his convertible with the roof down and a full face balaclava to stop his ears from freezing or his eyes streaming to the point of blinding him as he drives. I’m surprised those guys aren’t pulled over more because every time I see them they look like they’ve just robbed at least the car, possibly a bank, and are making good their getaway.

Anyway, what this enforced incarceration does allow for is another dose of funnies in our blog.

As always they’re towards the bottom of the page, and you can scroll on down now if you like, but you’ll miss all the other good stuff like The Useful.

Unable to get out on the course and missing football on TV?

No problem.

I’m being very generous including this next one in The Useful. Occasionally I feel benevolent, but, let it be known, this has a side offering of World Of The Weird about it too.

This though, is definitely a home run for The Useful. Happening in Houston right now, but a surefire hit for around the world in sunnier climes.

World Of The Weird

As Lockdown continues, behaviour around the planet alters, both in animals and humans. Here, we celebrate that behaviour.

For instance, the jellyfish casually swimming through the canals of Venice.

The people who’ve suddenly found the time to train their little bird to do all of this.

The lady who deserves a category of her own because….well, see for yourself. *Sound on*

At least this next woman is prepared to wear her face mask properly. Her biggest crime is having too much time on her hands.

And realistically, how long did we think it would be before examples like this broke out everywhere?

People Are Amazing.

Events such as this throw up the unlikeliest of heroes, and for me, this will always be Captain Tom’s time. He’s a Colonel now because of it. And look…

There’s a lovely thing springing up online just now where famous stars are reading stories for kids, often for charitable causes. It’s Captain America!

How responsible is this?! The street that eats together, meets together to work it all off again.
