Downed Robin

Today, I am two separate gorillas.

The perfect festive gift for all the family...

... is, sadly, no longer available:
"Amazon pulls £450 circumcision training dummy from sale after fears over DIY surgery"
Oh well, I guess it'll have to be gift vouchers as usual this year...

About this blog

My Photo
Andrew King
No yearly round robin letter from me - just a blog about anything odd, entertaining, surprising or interesting enough to share with friends, family and other sentient lifeforms.

Also contains witterings about politics, society and the economy (mainly from the socially liberal/left quadrant of the political compass), along with a bit of marvelling in stunned disbelief at religion, Brexit and other odd belief systems.



I am not really called Robin, nor have I ever been.
