leash-curb and clean up
jenny sent me this photo of a person cleaning up after their dog in a very uncomfortable way. it loks like they are using a pokey stick and a plant pot.
big nose’s drip
Big Nose Ugly Guy (occasional commenter,long time reader and new New Zealand liver) sent me these photos.

her writes: “Not sure if the following too obscure but I thought I’d drop you these pics as the scene struck me as FP-ish, given the involvement of cones, an umbrella, a colour copier toner spill and hazard tape. The Business Support lady who placed the umbrella said it was to ‘stop the toner turning to ink’. Whether she anticipated a roof leak or a sprinkler test I’m not sure. ”
Nothing is too obscure for funkypancake. and if it was i’d include it anyway !

the other side of the wet picnic
remember i posted a picture of my parents-in-law picnicing in the rain under a comedy poncho ?
well, we were huddling under my military poncho as can be seen here. there are four of us under there.
interestingly, at the time there was a lot of debate about who had the most cover in our family. you can view from the hood position that it was actually jane, not me, who had the most cover, despite the consensus at the time.
Domhnall’s buffet photos
my colleague Domhnall sent me these photos of a recent trip to a buffet.
he writes: “On the plus side we had lunch in a china buffet place today and they had the weirdest instructions. See the attached and you’ll realise they charge you for sitting down (unless you ask them not to), how much your children pay depends on their height, and the offer of Chinese Mush was one I personally passed on! ”
sticky situation
Georgina (better half of alvin the hoggster) sent me this saying “Not sure if you have this sign in your collection. My friend Nai (who reads my blog and thus yours) wanted me to send you this. She liked the fact that the poor chap seems to be evacuating his bowels and wondered whether this had caused him to slip or vice versa?”
to me it looks like a little person trapped in chewing gum

wellies
things have been stupid hectic in the funkypancake household since early june. yesterday i thought i’d have a look through some of the emails i’ve been sent during that period of time as i knew there were a few photos people have sent me to upload.
so this week i plan to share those outstanding photos with you. whilst i love to see other people’s photos it takes extra time to put them on the blog so i’ve let them slip for a while. this week is catch up week and apologies to anyone who’s photos i’ve missed and/or delayed for ages.
