We've already been for one walk this morning, and I intend to take Edna out for another once I've posted the blog, before it gets dark. Those of you who are responsible dog owners will understand why: once the shades of night fall, it gets rather hard to locate any <ahem> deposits left behind, especially at this point in autumn, where there are lots of fallen leaves to confuse the issue. Art?
Sulking or sleeping? Only you can tell! |
With that unusually wholesome and homely Intro out of the way, let us give the motley a weekly bus pass and leave it at the bus stop*.
O Coincidence Hydra Hello Again
Well well What The Hell? As you may be aware, over the past few days I have been contemplating humanity's relationship with the shark, which seems to have been uniformly negative, at least in the popular media. Art?
The Whale Shark. |
Okay, this chap is dangerous. |
Well, who wouldn't want to see a flying shark take on a giant chainsaw? |
I don't know if the Sharktopus franchise counts as a shark film series. But as long as you idiots out there keep watching them, they'll keep making them!
I am not often lost for words. However - |
Oh, A Shark Tale doesn't count, as their sharks look stupid.
"But, Conrad, Where Does The Coincidence Hydra Come In?"
I hear you quibble. Well, I'd been looking at the positive things that sharks have to offer the world, and then checked out Twitter, because I like to flit between things. Art?
"My dog became a shark when I bought new carpet" |
I dunno, sometimes it seems safer to stay in bed.
Still Being Aquatic
Yes, back to Operation Sealion and the prospective Teuton invasion of the Allotment of Eden.
Perfidious Albion was actually vulnerable to an airborne invasion in the summer of 1940, which was unfortunate for the Teutons, as they were in no shape to mount any such operation. Their parachute arm had suffered heavy casualties in their operations in Scandinavia, the invasion of the Low Countries and France, not to mention the excessive losses of their Ju52 transport aircraft.
These. |
"Ah, but why not just capture an RAF airfield and fly your airborne back-up in?" I hear you ask.
An RAF airfield |
Finally -
Not at all sure what this is or what it does, but it looked interesting, so - Art?
World's biggest cotton-reel? |
And with that mystery I shall bid you good day and go walk Edna. Cheerio!
* This might seem quite lenient, but there's only one bus per hour.
