OLL LEWIS: Yesterday’s News Today

http://cryptozoologynews.blogspot.com/

Friday Fact time:

It has been rumoured by patriotic Britons that Charles Hawtrey was not sacked from the Carry-On films after being squiffy on the set of Carry On Abroad as historian Simon Schama claims. Rather, they insist, he lies asleep in a hidden cave in the Brecon Beacons with many of his fellow Carry On stars, ready to awaken and spout forth innuendo on film at a time when Britain needs them. One account recorded in folklore concerns a young man who found the cave and was greeted by a man wearing a golden suit. The man in the golden suit said that the young man could take anything from the great horde of ornate brass bedsteads from the cave so long as he did not knock over the golden pear sat on a plinth in the centre of the cave… It doesn’t take much to guess what happened next considering the cave was filled with Carry On cast members does it?

Anyway, it’s time for the news:

Tiny dinosaur species identified

Primate fossil 'not an ancestor'

Magpies hold funerals for fallen feathered friends...

Richard Dawkins on Darwin's universal impact

Giant seagull appears behind Nine newsreader Peter Hitchener

So which hen lays the golden eggs?

No pun today, for in its place is one of the funniest videos I’ve ever seen on Youtube. Thanks to Dr Naish for first bringing this to my attention:

I’m sure you’ll agree it is much better than any ‘poultry’ pun I could come up with.
