TODAY's SPANKING NEW POEM -

I am the Zoo

Sick as a parrot

Worked like a dog

Float like a butterfly

Will croak like a frog!

Stubborn as a mule

Sting like a bee

Brave like a lion

Like a bat, I can’t see

As mad as a fish

Sly as a fox

Slow as a sloth

Wake with the cocks

Burn like a tiger

Free as a bird

Wise as an owl

Head of the herd

Eager as a beaver

Churchmouse poor

Drunk as a skunk

I’m a raging boar

The Worlds Most Populous Mammals

10. Donkey (40 million) - (That's a lot of Ass)

9. Horse (60 million) 

8. Tame Water Buffalo (175 million) (??? Have you got one ?? )

7. Domestic Dog (425 million) (This is Albert)

6. Domestic Cat (625 million)  (Guess that's that argument sorted then)

5. Goats (860 million) (You are kidding!)

4. Pigs (1.0 billion)

3. Sheep (1.1 billion)

2. Cows (1.5 billion)

That's Amaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazing

One Durham, North Carolina tortoise, has left his competition in the dust by being crowned the fastest the world has ever seen.

Bertie, the speedy tortoise, runs at a speed of about 0.6 miles per hour. This means that he is twice as fast as the average tortoise, and can finish a 100m race in just six minutes.

Although he may not be competing with Usain Bolt anytime soon, Bertie lives contentedly in his "luxury enclosure with his girlfriend Shelly" where he enjoys his favourite snack—strawberries.

Great diverse short stories

Love this writer I bought his previous books and in my opinion this is the best so far. The stories are much more diverse than the others. For a book of short stories there are a lot there, great to pop in and read as and when you want to. Read mine on the train, I laughed out loud at one point making my fellow passengers jump out of their seats. Recommended read....
