Beatles, I assume?

I am not really sure who did the original; or any covers. I just remembered the proper wording and tune of that line but none of the rest of the song. Go figure..

No Exhibition Manager worth his salt would allow for that many extra operators!

But they would be able to save a fortune on catering...

Just need a couple of fish and some bread.

I sure hope that Kirk did not give up his job as Captain of the starship Boobyprise! 😂

 

I think it was something to do with him having a contract with Star Trek so couldn't do any acting roles. The only thing he seems to have done was this, a low budget Western.

A lot of the album is spoken word stuff like Shakespeare monologues.

Here's the Beatles original  (which was nicely parodied by John Fred & His Playboy band as "Judy in disguise with Glasses")

That was the second-worst movie I ever saw.

There’s a word that sums up the explanation to both how it does and the thinking process of the creator . . . vacuum 😁

Strange sightings of Batman and Robin have been occurring in London - Thousands of ULEZ (Ultra Low Emission Zone) cameras have been installed to record numberplates of offending older cars so their owners can be charged £12.50 for daring to drive a non-compliant car in London. This usually means any diesel car made before 2014 or a petrol car made before 2006, so the fines especially hurt low paid workers, students and retirees. The two masked crusaders have been seen helping the local bat population by installing homes for them in front of ULEZ cameras. Since bats are a protected species (unlike motorists) once the bat boxes are installed they can not be tampered with nor disturbed by law. Batman and Robin helpfully also place legal notices on the poles so workers coming to fix the cameras know they risk a six month jail sentence or an “unlimited” fine if they so much as touch the bat box.

Bat roosts have legal protection: Vigilante anti-ULEZ campaigners hang bat boxes on cameras to stop engineers fixing them

By Adam Toms and Rom Preston-Ellis, The Mirror

The £10 animal homes have been spotted attached to ULEZ devices in Chessington, Kingston upon Thames and North Cheam. ULEZ opponents say they are “positively contributing to London’s biodiversity and ecosystem”. One said: ”I’m sure whoever is behind it is extremely grateful to TfL for providing the poles to house this protected species.”

A stupid idea, easily defeated.

The council could employ a person with a bat license, who could inspect the boxes to check of any bat activity and if none, seal the entrance and the council could remove the boxes.

Apparently a vast majority of Londoners support ULEZ. 

 

Probably it's a case of more people support the person/people that came up with the idea rather than the idea...

 

 

More Londoners probably support Leyton Orient than ULEZ!

On a short break with SWMBO in the Lake District,  and visited the South Lakes Safari Zoo. They have a rhino there with a head at each end...20240402_1546362.jpg.78477dceef68c87684991b2e30724e65.jpg


I guess the left end is the lower tone horn?

Rhinos always lower the tone
