The two rabbits were fast asleep in their burrow, all cosy and snug, when the phone rang.
"Frog me, who's that ringing at this time of night?" said Plopsy, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. He grabbed the telephone and put it to one ear. "Hello?" He listened, then added, "Oh yes. Hang on." Plopsy elbowed Dropsy. "It's for you."
"What?" Dropsy asked rudely, turning over and burying his face in his pillow. "Who is it?"
"It's Bono," said Plopsy. "They're playing some 100,000-seater stadium in Germany. They're live on stage right now and he wants you to address the audience."
Dropsy sat up, yawned, farted, then took the phone from his friend and hollered down it, "GOOD EVENING DEUTSCHLAND!!!"
A minute later the call ended and Dropsy put the phone back on its cradle.
"Frogging rock stars," he said, fluffing up his pillow. "No doubt they'll ring me from the Kremlin tomorrow night."
Plopsy tutted and shook his head. Then he made them both a cup of hot chocolate, refilled their hotty botties and they went back to sleep.
I want you to know that I disagree with everything. This is not what Planet Earth needs right now. I oppose it and strongly advocate a better alternative to this. I believe the future of mankind needs to remove itself from these kind of things and begin to look for a solution rather than merely citing things as they stand. I endorse all who lament this and wish their cause success and prosperity.
ReplyDeleteSo...you disagree with rabbits? Rabbits answering the telephone? I agree we don't all need Bono ringing us up right now and that there must be a better alternative - like email - but I'm a bit confused by some of your comments. So, in future we need to remove ourselves from allowing rabbits to drink hot chocolate and use hot water bottles...?
Deleteyes, that's what I am saying.
ReplyDeleteHang on a mo - 'Anonymous'?? You're the one who coordinated all those cyber attacks in the US! Can I have your autograph?
DeleteAfter almost 2 months of deliberating in council meetings, I am pleased to announce that an aparatus has been set up in Middlesex that would allow you to gain the autograph of someone not particularly related to me, but who was adjacent to the camel that fell beside the roadside near me, when I was almost 16 years old. That is the best I can do. However, if you send me an appropriate amount of money in US funds, I will send you 5 chucks of pork bearing filing cabinets which - in the 3rd draw down - have the trousers of Adolf Hitler's assistant pencil shapener, along with a penguin ash tray holder's muffler set of eel ear rings.
