Fank International
Posted: Monday, 27 March 2006 |
Roddie John the postie called in on his rounds this morning and showed me this lovely snap from Fank International, the global movement for sheep-related dating festivals. Seemingly these handsome chaps wanted to send their fraternal greetings to South Dell's very own matchmaking extravaganza.

I'm told Kintyre Man kept his socks on, but these guys are booted, suited and hatted. They must be taking the p***. I feel a song coming on. These boots were made for waulkin'..........

I am seriously concerned that people's expectations of the fank are going to be way too high and many will come away seriously scarred by the whole event. I hope you have a few post-traumatic-stress counsellors ready for the fall out. They will be needed by those who have paired up as well as those left without such handsome fellas, as in your photo.

They call themselves the Fab Five. They are: An interior designer, a fashion stylist, a chef, a beauty guru and someone we like to call the "concierge of cool" — who is responsible for all things hip, including music and pop culture. They are the "Queer Eye" team.

The Famous Five are feeling very sheepish.

Metalman from Sweden
well, Annie, I've heard it all noo. someone just asked me if we were playing that game where all the men put their car keys in a dish and the women take them out. its a very strange game I think. do you have any comments?
worried fank -ite from clutching the car keys
Daingit! And there's me engaged to be married. I join up here too late and find out that you lot would have done all the hard work for me. If you want the key to Cross School for the 'Pull Yourselves Together it's time to Make a Joint Claim for Income Support' Seminar (hereafter referred to as PYTITTMAJCFISS), it's under the Penguin at the front door. Shhhhhh! Na innis dha duine!

Hi Graham, I've been in touch with Blogging Central. Will the reporter be from the investigative, showbiz or society department, I wonder? Has (s)he filled in one of Sunny's dating profiles? Calum has strict protocols for attendees you know.
Annie B from the usual
Brings a whole new meaning to dipping the sheep!
Charolais Chapman from Cheviot Vewe Galson
Since most car owners on Lewis have lost their car keys years ago, any dish would be full of screwdrivers and bits of fuse wire. This isn't Bearsden you know?
Charlie Farley from Ruskin Cottage Cross
Mmmmm I thought it was only Australians who came into such close contact with sheep's hind quarters.

No The Welsh have a bit of 'previous' when it comes to sheep worrying.
Ram Naisbitt from Ewe Bend A857 Lewis
Funny. My pals in Melbourne, World Kapital of Kitsch, are sure it is the Kiwis who have carnival knowledge of our ovine friends........I think we should be told.

Pardon me boy, is that the catch-a-guga chew-chew?
Flying Cat from Orkney Mainland
We hear that virgin wool is very hard to come by is this due to some kind of fank fettish
The Polar Bear from Canada
Methinks your Melbourne friends have it wrong ... sad I know. However we must give them credit where credit is due.
