And what rough beast, its hour come round at last,
Slouches towards Pinner to be born?

Little Leona sometimes found it difficult to make friends.

Head Lions?

Do your children suffer from this embarrassing condition? Try this NEW permethrin-free treatment (must be used in conjunction with a lion-comb). Only £200 per course.

Fred Flintstone finally won that fight.

Meltonian said...

Some day my donkey will come.

Zephirine said...

Excellent captions, people! I find it interesting that she has quite a cheerful lion face but the pose seems rather forlorn. Maybe her lion half is happier for some reason?

Zephirine said...

No, looking at it again the lion face isn't all that cheerful either:) Pensive, maybe.

What do we really know about Offside?
Fantastic photo in GU from 1921, Dalstein, France.
Chaps sitting taking a break in Le Tour. Drinking beer. And the photo caption is:
Offside/L'Equipe

Busted Offie.

offsideintahiti said...

Moi, mimi? Drinking beer? Unbelievable.

Got a link, by any chance?

mimi said...

Sorry, Offie. No link. This was in the printed Graun. A special section on 100 years of Great Press Photographs. There may be something online, but I haven't searched. I just cut out the pic and stuck it on the wall!
