Bird what?

[Brinjal]

Headline seen in Zimbabwe newspaper. Bird flue under control.

That will stop the little critters from coming down my chimney.

of course the bird flew, that's what they do.

But would blocking up your bird flue stop Father Christmas being able to visit on the 24th!?! :-(

[Brinjal]

Not if they all flock off.

You've just remined me - we've got the chimney sweep coming on Monday - thanks for that!

Further Zim bashing.

Bob was on a recent tour of China with his begging bowl in hand.

Whilst there his Chinese counterpart entertained him by take him to various tourist places including a day at a lake.

While there the Chinese leader tells Bob. "We have a custom of skipping stones across the lake and the sound will tell us about our ancestery. Listen." He picks up a stone and skims it out across the lake.

The stone goes Ching chin chow.

You see says the chinese premier. It says I am from the ching dynasty my father is chim and my mother is chow.

Now you try

So bob picks up a stone and skims it.

It goes chim pan zee.

Somewhat annoyed he says that cant be right let me try again

same thing. chim pan zee

He is really angry now and picks up a large boulder and heaves it itn.

Ba boon.
