Just switched over to the #OpeningCeremony and my wife now wants a silver wedding dress puffa jacket. And is going to start knitting a mahoosive GB scarf.

My wife suggested I keep the leftover spare screws and bolts from a recent flat-pack furniture build “just in case we ever need them” and this is like me telling her to remember to blink regularly.

“Can we go outside and play now?” “Soon, boy.” “You said that ten minutes ago.” “As soon as I finish my cof-“ “Oops.” “You did that on purpose.” “It slipped.” “I’ll get my coat.” “Excellent.”

We had to let our orchestra’s increasingly unreliable percussionist go as there had been repeated complaints of a dull “clink” sound during performances. Sadly it seems he’d been hitting the bottle. #LunchPun #Joke

I invited people to come to my garden and make holes using some lower-leg bones I found, while I supplied booze. It was a lively shindig! #LunchPun #Joke

“The 1st rule of Rules Club is, you do not talk about Rules Club. The 2nd rule of Rules Club is, you DO NOT talk about Rules Club.” … “The 1064th rule of Rules Club is, you do not whistle in morse code about Rules Club. And that’s all we have time for this week. See you next time.”

It's Friday, the day all kinds of insanity drops. Before we jump into the dystopian vortex, a palate cleanser. Adorable #turtles to keep you sane. #Testudines #nature #animals #tortoise #cats

“Apologies, Mr DiCaprio is running late for his interview as he’s choosing an outfit for his next movie about a ballet dancer.” “Leo tardy?” “No, it’s leggings and a vest.” #LunchPun #Joke

“A letter fell off the NatWest sign in town and someone has artfully hung it on the wall down a back alley.” “Is it a Banksy?” “Don’t be silly, there’s no C in NatWest.” #LunchPun #Joke

Spent most of this morning persuading a stubborn wood pigeon not to build a nest at head height in a small bushy tree in my garden because my bouncy terrier cross-breed will HAVE HER!

I’ve watched numerous US shows and movies, and just want to check something: If you’re driving along a relatively quiet road and you see someone standing in the road having a conversation with someone on the pavement, is it obligatory to run them over?

I’ve been researching mental health issues as, bizarrely, my food has started talking to me. It could be delusional auditory hallucination, according to my sauces. #LunchPun #Joke

*First time listening to The Smiths* 🎶 Jaunty intro 🎶 “This sounds fun!” 🎶 “Girlfriend in a coma, I know, I know it’s serious” 🎶 “Fucking hell”

“I keep my valuables in a large, cheap, novelty mug which is stored inside a lockbox designed to look like a kitchen appliance.” “Dishwasher safe?” “No, the transfer came off” #LunchPun #Joke

When I was passed-out drunk, my wife used a needle and ink to draw an indelible boob on my buttock. Next time she was drunk I did the same to her in retaliation. It was tit for tat. #LunchPun
