There is a land that time does forget,

The beautiful county of Somerset,

It has often been said,

The locals are inbred,

But it has some of the finest scenery I have seen yet.

The land time forgot (probably Chard, Somerset) — It sometimes looks as if Somerset has not changed at all over time

Somerset la la la

It turns out that the beard worn by Hall,

Was not very lucky at all,

Somerset won by a mile,

This caused me to smile,

We shall go to Southampton and all have a ball.

I thought, “If only life was a bit more like wastebook”,

So I decided to give this idea a quick look,

But when I gave a girl a poke,

Her boyfriend did choke,

And he caught me with a hefty right hook.

Monday

Marmite is named after the type of french cooking pot which appears on the label.

Lattice multiplication has been about in Europe since the 13th century.

Thursday

India recently approved a new symbol for the rupee after a nationwide competition.

I learnt a neat trick for sketching cartoons using a blue pencil and GIMP

Saturday

UK postcodes in the second group of letters exclude the letters CIKMOV as they may be confused with other numbers or letters.

Sunday

Rabbits do not vomit, they are incapable of it. Cecotropes is the name given to the produce of their anus that they eat to give food a second go through their digestive system.

5 Comments on Donald the Lazy Rabbit’s proverbs

Never do today what can be left till tomorrow.

If a thing is worth doing, someone else is bound to do it to save you the hassle.

People in glass houses should chill.

Look before you sleep.

Better never than late.

Don’t count your chickens, they will still be there tomorrow.

Make hay another day.

He who sleeps first, sleeps longest.

Let sleeping rabbits lie.

No Comments on Mondays Child (by Harry the Grumpy Parrot)

Monday’s child has a funny face,

Tuesday’s child is a waste of space,

Wednesday’s child has a hairy back,

Thursday’s child is hooked on crack,

Friday’s child is spotty and sick,

Saturday’s child is stupid and thick

And the child that is born on the Sabbath day,

Will either be bald or prematurely grey.

Mondays child is fair of face,
Tuesdays child is full of grace,
Wednesdays child is full of woe,
Thursdays child has far to go,
Fridays child is loving and giving,
Saturdays child works hard for his living,
And the child that is born on the Sabbath day
Is bonny and blithe, and good and gay.

I often wondered what this meant on design templates and now I know… Lorem is a private school educated slug. A charming slug, posh nice but a bit dim but has money so that doesn’t worry him.
