The sketch:

(In the country we an Interviewer, with microphone. Behind him a man
sits on a wall, with clip-board, binoculars and spotting gear.)

Interviewer: Good evening. Tonight we're going to take a hard tough
abrasive look at camel spotting. Hello.

Spotter: Hello Peter.

Interviewer: Now tell me, what exactly are you doing?

Spotter: Er well, I'm camel spotting. I'm spotting to see if there are
any camels that I can spot, and put them down in my camel spotting book.


Interviewer: Good. And how many camels have you spotted so far?

Spotter: Oh, well so far Peter, up to the present moment, I've spotted
nearly, ooh, nearly one.

Interviewer: Nearly one?

Spotter: Er, call it none.

Interviewer: Fine. And er how long have you been here?

Spotter: Three years.

Interviewer: So, in, er, three years you've spotted no camels?

Spotter: Yes in only three years. Er, I tell a lie, four, be fair, five.
I've been camel spotting for just the seven years. Before that of course
I was a Yeti Spotter.

Interviewer: A Yeti Spotter, that must have been extremely interesting.

Spotter: Oh, it was extremely interesting, very, very - quite... it was
dull; dull, dull dull, oh God it was dull. Sitting in the Waterloo
waiting room. Course once you've seen one Yeti you've seen them all.

Interviewer: And have you seen them all?

Spotter: Well I've seen one. Well a little one... a picture of a... I've
heard about them.

Interviewer: Well, now tell me, what do you do when you spot a camel?

Spotter: Er, I take its number.

Interviewer: Camels don't have numbers.

Spotter: Ah, well you've got to know where to look. Er, they're on the
side of the engine above the piston box.

Interviewer: What?

Spotter: Ah - of course you've got to make sure it's not a dromedary.
'Cos if it's a dromedary it goes in the dromedary book.

Interviewer: Well how do you tell if it's a dromedary?

Spotter: Ah well, a dromedary has one hump and a camel has a refreshment
car, buffet, and ticket collector.

Interviewer: Mr Sopwith, aren't you in fact a train Spotter?

Spotter: What?

Interviewer: Don't you in fact spot trains?

Spotter: Oh, you're no fun anymore.

(ANIMATION: Then a girl in bed. Count Dracula enters. The girl reveals
her neck. The vampire goes to kiss her but his fangs fall out.)

Girl: Oh, you're no thn anymore.

(A man at the yardarm being lashed.)

Lasher:... thirty-nine... forty. All right, cut him down, Mr Fuller.

Lashee: Oh you're no fun anymore.

(Back to camel spotter.)

Spotter: Now if anybody else pinches my phrase I'll throw them under a
camel.

Interviewer: (giggling) If you can spot one.

(Spotter gives him a dirty look. Knight in amour appears beside him. He
hits interviewer with chicken.)



The Audit / You're No Fun (again)
As featured in the Flying Circus TV Show - Episode 7

Sorry, thought I’d share that - made me laugh anyway Wink

Getting back on topic, whilst out yeti spotting we found a much rarer and more endangered species - the IcePaq, more commonly know as IP.

Yes, it's true, he's been spotted hurtling down the side of a mountain at great speed and injury to himself (I’ll let him tell u all about it).

He apologies for the long absence and promises he'll be along to share he's adventures with you soon Wink

Doc says that if I want to board then I need my knee fixing first (I haven't taken any notice for the past 5 years, but this time he might have a point).

It's fine at the moment but boarding tends to put a bit of strain on it and then I'll be hobbling around for a couple of weeks while it mends again. Apparently though it gets worse each time until you get to the point where it won't mend.
