I Don't Like Mondays

[wolf63]

I only work four hours per week - Monday afternoon. Monday has never been my best day, I think that I used to snooze at my desk with my eyes open.

I hope that you enjoy this - the tune/sound is naff and annoying.

it must be awkward to lose the use of one's forelimbs, but it helps if you live on a slippery surface.

That's me most mornings.

Polar bears travel like that if the ice is starting to crack

[Baldric]

Prove it ^^!

[Baldric]

And I thought it was a great Vid.
Thanks

[hc4361]

I don't need to prove it, Baldric, the scientists have already done so.

[Baldric]

Ok, so do you have a link?

"But most remarkable of all is when a great bear comes to thin, freshly formed ice. The animal spreads its legs apart to distribute its weight, and if the ice still threatens to break it might lay its belly and chest on the flexing surface, perhaps using its forearms like runners, while pushing itself along in an almost swimming motion."

Boys - no squabbling, naughty step if you can't get on.

I read once that they are one of the more dangerous Zoo animals as they have no facial expressions or obvious body language which says 'I am about to rip your head off'. Personally I would have thought that staying away from them would be more sensible.

Wolf, no naughty step for us, we're doing just fine, thank you for your most informative link canary.

Do polar bears die if they eat Puffer fish?

[DTCwordfan]

counter-argument, divebuddy - unless you are an Inuit, you are unlikely to pop the clogs by eating polar bear liver....

It's Baldric (No K) and I wouldn't have asked as I seen it before

[DTCwordfan]

Have to love a Puffer Fish though.
