My rebus

So yours was a rebus about a rebus, Jack... 

[Hobbit]

Morning (Evening!) Jack

All quiet on the Western Front so far - long may it continue!  I'm liking your variation on the rebuses   Very clever.

I had a suspicion I might have done my rebus before but I'm going to chance it & cross my fingers & toes

The first picture gives you the first three words.  Once you have that I think the rest will fall into place. 

Getting busy now so I'm going to skedaddle for the moment...

[Hobbit]

It's me again Jack!

Just a couple of bits I didn't get chance to post this morning.

      

Blue's friend Bruce walks into the hardware store and says "I'd like some nails please mate".
The shop assistant asks "how long would you like them?"
"Forever if that is ok with you" replies Bruce.

An insult favoured by Aussies - "I hope that your chooks turn into Emu's and kick your dunny down."
I can't tell you why that made me chuckle - but it did

Less than an hour til I can go home & get the kettle on!

Hi Pen,

 

You probably guessed I have been looking for new ways to present a rebus.  Today is a situation analysis.  Here is a cartoon about what the robber said.



This is what I think he really said

Hi Jack

I'm very much enjoying your new ways of presenting a rebus   I've racked my brains & haven't managed to come up with anything different.  Doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying though.  I'm dashing in and out today as I'm finishing work after lunch and heading off to Sainsburys to do a bit of shopping and then home to do a few chores.  I know how to live life on the edge

Hi Carol,

There looks to be a record amount of water coming your way.  I hope you are on high ground.

[2dognight]

Hi Jack

Indeed there is a lot of water coming from the Murray Darling system

I live on a a flood plain but my understanding is that where I live did not get flooded in 1956  One can only live in hope

Unfortunately a lot of people will badly impacted

Looking on the bright side the Yabbies will be in abundance  I do love a yabby

Thanks for your kind thoughts

Carol

[Hobbit]

Hi Carol

I hope you're safe & dry.  Why do they build on flood plain?  They're doing it not a million miles from here.
I had to look up a yabby as I'd not heard of it!
I'm going to enjoy porridge & blueberries   My Friday treat as I don't have time for it on schooldays 
Keeping my fingers & toes crossed that you're ok.

[2dognight]

Hi Pen

I am high and dry for the moment the peak of the flood is not due until December, I say dry but I am not cos I am having my medicinal glass of wine

Why build on flood plains answer Money

Carol

[Hobbit]

You can't beat a medicinal glass of wine Carol 
Cheers - I'll join you later

It does not matter if the glass is half full or half empty...it is refillable.
Enjoy.

Very true Gareth!  My bottle of pink plonk is chilling nicely   Should reach optimum temperature in about an hour

Hi Pen,

I had a few distractions yesterday, so here is a quick easy rebus.  An Idiom

I've racked my brains & haven't managed to come up with anything different.  Doesn't mean I'm going to stop trying though. 

Hi Pen,

I wouldn't bother putting any great effort into trying to come up with something different.  Your rebuses are great already.   It just that I have software that I rarely use, and I thought it would be a challenge to use it to spice up my posts a bit.

Blue had a dream last night.  He was talking to God, as one does.
Blue: How long is a billion years?
God: To me it is but a minute
Blue: How much is a billion dollars?
God: To me, it is a cent
Blue: Can I have a cent?
God: Wait a minute.

Blue went into a Pet Store and asked for a dozen bees.  The shop Assistant carefully counted out 13 bees.  Blue pointed to the last one.  Blue asked, “Why that one?”  The assistant replied, “because it’s a freebie.”

 

An easy traditional rebus today. A radio serial which developed in a tv series, comics etc.
