Comedian, magician and entertainer Tommy Cooper was born 101 years ago today. He was called up in 1940 and served as a trooper in the Royal Horse Guards for seven years, joining Montgomery's Desert Rats in Egypt. Cooper became a member of a Navy, Army and Air Force Institutes (NAAFI) entertainment party, and developed an act around his magic tricks interspersed with comedy. One evening in Cairo, during a sketch in which he was supposed to be in a costume that required a pith helmet, having forgotten the prop Cooper reached out and borrowed a fez from a passing waiter, which got huge laughs. Thereafter he always wore a fez when performing, the prop later being described as "an icon of 20th-century comedy". On 15th April 1984, he collapsed from a heart attack in front of millions of television viewers, midway through his act on the London Weekend Television variety show "Live from Her Majesty's", which as the name implies was transmitted live from Her Majesty's Theatre in Westminster. The show continued while efforts were made backstage to revive him but when he was taken to Westminster Hospital he was pronounced dead on arrival.

We had a full blown gangbang going on in our pond yesterday - the (female I assume) one they all seemed to be attracted to had blown up like a balloon, at first I thought she was dead but she did go back to normal size eventually when they all got off her...

Mine was just on the slab at the front door. No pond but a large marsh land at the back of the house what they will be coming from. Funny thing on the BBC web site. You have the send us your pictures section. Scroll past the two frogs shagging picture there is a strange albino looking on photographed in Glasgow

My old man spent a large part of his working like as a London bus driver and has spent a fair bit of his old age having skin cancer zapped on the right side of his head. A life behind the wheel I suppose.

Why would you need and 'Emergency Exit Window' when you could just jump out of the open side of the top deck? :think:
