Poor wombat and his relatives.
Permalink  

Seen this on FB. I thought I just had to post it here also. Glad there is somebody out there looking after the wombats of the world.

 

IDIOT SIGHTING.

I live in a semi rural area.
We recently had a new neighbour call the local council P & W office to request the removal of the WOMBAT CROSSING sign on our road.
The reason: 'Too many wombats are being hit by cars out here! I don't think this is a good place for them to be crossing anymore.'
Story from Collingwood, Melbourne.

bigW can't read, he is a wombat, he can't write either that's why he uses a poota but Mrs W tells him what buttons to push.

Wonder if a Wombat Crossing is like a Zebra Crossing?

I have a wombat bar on the front of the tug that just scoops them to the side of the road so the next car doesn't run over them, I am very thoughtful.

I think you had better change the angle of your wombat bar Doug. I vaguely remember seeing what dazren is talking about when we dined at The Bay. Alan..

Bugga, you were reported AWOL bigW.

You know I wouldn't say anything nasty about you mate and that Dazren is an expert at hacking into my poota.

Sorry Shekon, these others are hijacking your thread.

Just catching up, Dougwe I would have expected nothing less than this one to be hijacked by you and your mate Wombat. That is what makes this a fun forum.

He done it, not me Shekon, I is innocent until otherwise charged. Wombat will blame Dazren anyway.
