Just remembered that bloke who wrote music for a bunch of imaginary Nintendo Wii Sports events including croquet, curling and snorkelling.

I went to @batsfordbooks.bsky.social shop today to buy this by @seasideferry.bsky.social and it’s great! A bittersweet reminder of 80s holidays in run-down North Sea seaside towns

Here's an odd illusion: look at a picture of Edgar Allan Poe and you may think that he looks slightly, though not very much, like Kenneth Connor in Carry On Girls. But if you then look at a picture of Kenneth Connor, you'll see that he doesn't, particularly. This is known as the Poe-Connor Effect.
Edgar Allan Poe looking not particularly like Kenneth Connor, and Kenneth Connor looking not particularly like Edgar Allan Poe.

A footballer kicks his football directly into Biffo's groin, then while Biffo is doubled over in pain launches one of his football cleats off his foot into Biffo's arse. Panel 1 FOOTBALLER: Sorry, Biffo! BIFFO: Ow! Panel 2 BIFFO (in pain): It's agony! Panel 3 FOOTBALLER: Oops! Sorry again! BIFFO: Ooyah!

I’m wondering if I should become one of those middle-aged men who gives a little casual salute instead of saying goodbye.

I’m in JFK Terminal 4 and there’s a restaurant playing 808 State album tracks from 1993’s “Gorgeous”. What’s that all about?

Biffo simultaneously looks at a crow eating worms and a cackling painter's paint set and gets a Big Idea!

Buster's skull is crushed to splinters by a giant pencil falling from the sky as he and Biffo race to get autographs from Muscles McGinty, the World's Strongest Man. MUSCLES MCGINTY, THE WORLD'S STRONGEST MAN: Hullo! What's this?

Buster distracts Biffo with a Wistful Phantom Duplicate so he can steal Biffo's giant tray full of food off his dinner table, leaving a note behind that reads "Thanks, Biffo -Buster". Biffo is, uh... Something seems to be wrong with him. Moreso than usual. He seems seriously unwell. Maybe someone should check on him to see if he is okay.

Biffo is delighted as a sudden gust of wind inflates his ridiculously-oversized shorts, giving him the ability to run with superhuman speed. NARRATOR: Suddenly, there's a gust of wind-- BIFFO: Whoopee! The wind's blowing my shorts out like sails! WIND: Wheeee! Whoosh! BIFFO'S MOVEMENT RATE: Picking up speed

Biffo weeps and grimaces as his tongue is assaulted by the blistering spice of his peppery soup while a Home Glass-Blowing Outfit looks on disapprovingly. BIFFO: I'll have dinner first and then get started with my glass-blowing. Golly! This soup isn't half peppery!

An Awful Man blabs incessantly to Biffo and Buster (nude) as they watch their clothing swirl around inside a washing machine. Several marbles come out of Buster's shorts pocket. AWFUL MAN: Blah! Blah!... BUSTER: My marbles were in my pocket.

I WAS disgusted the other day when the obituary column of my local newspaper printed that I had died. Not only that, they got my date of birth, place of residence and family details all wrong. As a result I had to storm into the funeral to tell everyone I was still alive. They told me that there was another John Smith living locally, and after speaking to his relatives and opening his coffin I saw that it was true. I had a good laugh about it after.

Biffo leers over a hedge as his nephews ride frantically on an out-of-control pig. NEPHEWS: Whoa, Porky!

Biffo hands a woman a parcel of meat and suspiciously compliments her dog. What could he have meant by that? BIFFO: Your meat, Ma'am. Nice dog you have!

Biffo surreptitiously greases a man's gloves with lard from a small parcel labeled "LARD" while telling us what he is doing with the lard. BIFFO: I'll grease his gloves with lard.

Biffo strolls past a "Beware of the Goats" sign and whistles nonchalantly as he decides to ignore the enraged goat that appears to be sizing him up nearby. BIFFO: I'll just ignore that goat~
