Okay, So It's Lent; We Didn't Totally Give Up Levity

Some of us were singing the Flanders and Swann "Hippopotamus Song" at the breakfast table, which information I'm sure is guaranteed to keep us houseguest-free for the next six months.

Anyway, one thing led to another, and I stumbled on this. If you gave up laughing for Lent, for heaven's sake don't watch it.

The poster!

You know, it's funny, but I don't recall any posters that I owned.

And no, we just sing the translation:

"There to improve our cultural relations!"
