My daughter was at a birthday party yesterday when an owl landed on the birthday cake.

That's something I suspect I shall go to my grave never seeing, but it struck me as a pretty weird thing to have happened.

Anyone else experienced (or had related by a close family member) anything delightfully bizarre this weekend?

I had to tell my daughter off for licking the underside of snails.......
never thought 'stop licking that snails bottom' would be a sentence I'd ever use.

that is wierd.

did you still eat the cake

I wasn't there! But, strangely, they did: or rather, a slice of the cake is on the side in my kitchen, wrapped in an Angelina Ballerina napkin.

I'm told it was a very clean owl

I had a troubled childhood as you can see

My neighbour has strapped some kind of wood to his 9 year old daughters legs to make her taller and she is currently out the front garden cutting the hedges !

That happened at my wedding. It is actually a common occurrence in the highlands.

Is that why Owls go "HOOT" ?

I have no idea. Did you mean Hoots? That might be funny.

That is an interesting grammatical question Ullapool Lass. Owls hoot, owls go hoot; an owl hoots. Even in the delightful Highlands. Did you wear the traditional sash to your wedding ? I think Highland weddings are so romantic.

In terms of surreal things or people - my favourite director of surreal films is David Lynch.

I shall never wear a sash

i just woke my dog up laughing so loudly at that one

my OH once saw a woman walking down the middle of the road wearing nothing but a few bits of string and a cross made of black insulating tape on each boob. it was about 8am in the middle on London. No one else seemed to notice.

this forum is very surreal sometimes

It is other things too BQ, that it is. It is here for fun where I am concerned.
