You couldn't make it up....

That is a really wonderful food ad. Thanks Bonny.

Latest internet sensation - an ad for a Scots travel agency:

her staff have 'more attitude'

I would have said 'more a*se' actually. It's gruesome, a copycat mix of bits from other holiday ads. LL

One for plane buffs:

Behind the curtain of North Korea's official domestic airline: Soviet-era planes and censored in-flight entertainment on the world's only 'one-star' carrier (but maybe eat before boarding)

The Mail have tried to make North Korea Airlines sound dreadful, but as is being pointed out in the comments, it's actually an improvement on Ryanair, etc....

And the food looks excellent:



I liked turbo-props. They didn't do anything in a hurry, the engines made a soothing rumble, and you could look out the window and see the propellers were still going round.....

Most civilised, I should think, LL?

My dad's name for turbo props was 'Betsy' cos he said they looked homely!    With Malev going under I am not sure what the airlines fly out of Budapest these days.  Malev was a great airline, great food, nice onboard staff, but the goverment let it fail.  I loved the Betsys.   LL

Yes, I know what your dad meant, I flew on ancient Brittanias and Viscounts, and it never occurred to me that they were going to plummet out of the skies....

I should think North Korean airlines are just about the world's safest these days - little danger of hi-jackers, Ebola, computers over-riding the humans, the humans falling asleep at the wheel, nothing.

Now, if they could just do something about their tyrant, they could be a Cuba-style money-spinner. Back to the future!

It is unclear if this camel at the sanctuary is the one that killed the man


Tulum civil defence official Alberto Canto said: "The camel kicked and bit him practically to death, and when he was almost dead, he sat on him.

"Between the blows and the weight of the camel on top of him, he was asphyxiated."

He said the ungulate may have launched the attack because it was upset at not getting its daily fizzy drink.

"One version is that he [Mr Mileski] would always give him a Coca-Cola to drink, and apparently, that day he didn't give him the Coca-Cola," said Mr Canto.

I'm not sure if that is very bad, or very, very good, publicity for Coke.....

Woman Arrested After Getting Stuck In Chimney
The 30-year-old was discovered at the home of a man she reportedly met online, and was freed with a chisel and washing up liquid.

A woman has been rescued and then arrested after getting stuck in the chimney of a house of a man she reportedly met online.

Firefighters in Ventura County, California, who responded to a report from a neighbour of a woman crying, had to chisel away much of the chimney and lubricate it with washing up soap to free Genoveva Nunez-Figueroa.

The 30-year-old was arrested on suspicion of illegal entry and giving false information to police, according to the Ventura County Star.

Some people just can't take NO for an answer.

We think that the numpties are dumb!  She could at least have waited until midnight December 24.

Well....don't know what to say.

That is gross! They should go back to the Brian and the Elephant one, now that was fun. LL

Yes, that was OK, and so was the Snoop Dogg one. That's horrible, though, twerking's bad enough when it's women doing it, but a bloke....

I didn't even know there WAS such an animal as an echidna puggle - what a wonderful name.

Oh, they're like big hedgehogs:
