Sea Cucumber Mill

O brightly sings the cucumber his nostrils flaring wide. He hides among the dog whistles and peas. His curling tail goes round the church and tickles them all inside. The vicar cartwheels through the door and wears away his knees.

Hilfe In Der Not

Hilfe in der not.   Not health in the knot nor the back of the knees. Nor any of dese. No, it's definately not any of those. Do you suppose it's a help?  Or a knot in them trousers. Or a life in the trees. Like Tarzan or sneeze like Jane would indeed. Not a knot for the string or a string for the knot. What is better - a long length of knots or a knobbly what-not?

Nearly The Elephant

Nelly the elephant plunked her trink and trundled off down the fog horn. Home she went with a clumpity clump stump stump bump. The head of the nerds was calling far far away. He called one night when he was on his bike and unloaded lots of hay. So Nelly trumpeted and drunk trumbled off down the jumble. The dancers laughed to see such fun and had a quick fumble.

Black Bananas

O  dearie me those black bananas are calling
Back to my old knobbly home down South
Where the water melons grow and I hear the dew falling
Like rabid cactus pies all round my mouth

Far Tottering & Oyster Creek Railway


The Far Tottering and Oyster Creek Branch Railway was the inventive dream of Roland Emett that became a reality. A fictional narrow-gauge railway with a fantastical view of British rural life and embodying Emett's typical whimsical mechanics, very much in the same cup of street as the works of Heath Robinson and Rube Goldberg.
The railway began as a series of Emett cartoons in pre-war Punch magazine of 1939. At this time it was termed the Far Tottering and Oyster Creek Railway.
After the war, it was chosen as an attraction for the 1951 Festival of Britain events on the South Bank. A workable railway, now termed the Far Tottering and Oyster Creek Branch Railway, was constructed that carried over two million passengers through the Battersea Pleasure Gardens.
The three locomotives were:
NĀŗ1 Nellie
NĀŗ2 Neptune
NĀŗ3 Wild Goose
Were all made to Emett's drawings, but used war-surplus diesel engines on a 15 in (381 mm) gauge chassis.
After the endness of the Festivities itself, the Pleasurable Gardens became Battersea Parkland.

Doris The Modified Dog


Doris the modified dog presented herself to the half chicken in charge, turned round three times and settled herself down in the cool space under the sink. The half chicken clucked, chirped, squeaked and let out a low moaning sort of bellow and squinted at the monkey rifling through his deep pockets for conkers. The long armed monkey stretched his long fingers into the deepest recesses of the pockets and pulled out handfuls of fluff, bus tickets and sticky bull's eyes. He laid them carefully at the feet of the half chicken who made a sound not unlike a coughing ferret. "What no conkers?" he squeaked.
Dories the modified dog laughed quietly to herself and rattled her lid with keen anticipation.

Bedlam


The rules are simple -

You need - 1. A pointed passe-partout strengthener
2. Some cobbled ear flaps
3. Padded grill plates
4. 14 Single melted wheel grips

Take point B and fold over to meet point A. Score along the dotted line and fan the three edges with a folded napkin. Bend knees and join back to the front of the third edge of the fifth folded crease marked X . Scumble the fine print. Fold the fifth edge to join plate M . Fold and crease the line E so that it meets the folded edge of the back of the knees marked Y.

Now you are set to enjoy your first rummage.
Place your solo plan D into the mixing pot. Shake the dice and cut the cards and bend the folded edge of C to meet the pointed P.
Take turns the squeak the notes on the back of card marked with a quill.
Folds are now open for frobbage.
The first to meet the circular filberts will be the winner.
