    Awesome - laughed out loud at taking the dog for a whistle. Also very relieved at the ‘stop now’ instruction very early on.

    P.S. This would make a damn fine poster….
    But unfortunately, my fridge is already covered with FD merchandising. :-(

    Campbell Moody I think in the last panel the pressure of excitement - or a brain fart or something- is causing a breakdown in grammar, syntax and vocabulary.

    Teach Your Dog to Whistle’ is a book I want to own.

    What would sweet Jesvs do? Would he grant a pair to an expectant father?

    And what if the P0pe Himself lobbed into Canberra and invited Mr Rabbott to afternoon tea on a sitting day - but the government refused a pair. Oh dear.

    Had to look up “fartlek” in the Urban Dictionary (I’m sooo out of touch). FD, I am so hoping you were referring to their first meaning rather than their second…

    He has a pair all right, but not t*st*s. He couldn’t be that silly playing with just one could he?

    Turnbull can’t have a pair either? What does that make him “Turnox”?

    SBH - “…. if one believes the press …” - you a funny man!
    Doc - you reckon could be a case of “Does Not Play Well with Others”? Guess that’s what comes from playing with himself, too long?

    Mr Rabbits pockets have never had bottoms in them. I think that is why he walks and talks funny, he is trying to walk, talk , chew chewing gum and not lose rhythm all at the same time. Do not under any circumstances shake his hand.

    Who has the biggest parliamentary pair?”

    Kind of fortunate you’ve moved away from the TA’s penis characterisation :)

    Funny funny funny! But I rather like the long-eared bunny - I have one just like it from my childhood. I will NOT be changing his name to Tonyabbot!

    Did you consider Tony Abbott’s penis to host this guide? SHudder, what did I just say?

    ONya First Dog. TOp work as usual.

    I recall TA offering an erudite comment on the campaign trail to effect he doesn’t have much time left for sex on the campaign trail and I think that ought be remembered. Follow the scat. Stop now. :grin:

    I do vote for taking the dog for a whistle.

    Where are the tweet buttons? Can I not share this with my Tweety friends?

    Didn’t he say only believe what he writes down? And didn’t he agree to a pairing in writing recently that he then didn’t agree on? Can that be right? Or write? Or should we only believe in his rights?

    He confuses me, yes he does.

    Tweet might be last century, but all my friends are still stuck in the past with me. I’ll wait until Google Plus is fashionably boring before I finally get off my technologically lazy rear and give it a go….

    Tweet.
