As it is Sunday and a day of rest and relaxation and fun and laughter, I thought it would be great to showcase the English 'Sense of Humour'. 

Why not add a photo which you think best defines this, it can be quirky, funny, odd, weird, amusing, strange or just totally different.Your Comments welcomed!

(No photos of mothers in law please!) LOL

Here's a couple to start with: I think someone was very inventive to think of this new use for old boots, I love it

Thank you Jaunty Jane, these photos are a great example of "different" and I don't think this subject has been toured yet, unless I have missed it somewhere.  I did notice the funny photo forum and thought it would make a great tour.  Hope you all agree! Lets create some fun and laughter for a while Laughing

Thank you Ruth.  Yes and there are some very funny pictures there - I thought it would be great to get something similar into a Tour plus all those odd, strange, weird and different pictures (that don't really fit into any normal category) but make you smile or wonder why someone would have made it (like your concrete sofa) !

I must ask those that contributed to that Chat if we could put their favourite from there on the Tour!

How about this one - it wouldn't fit into a normal category - but I think it is really quirky Laughing
