    One wafer thin mint too many. RIP Terry.

    I think I’ll be re-watching some Python tonight.

    Why is it that every boring man you meet quotes Monty Python at you. Never understood the attraction of it.

      Must be the lads you hang out with, Amy. It could just be that they’re boring. Or maybe you bring it out in them?

      1. Caroline. No.

        Maybe get off Tinder Amy?

        The lads I meet must be different

    That film has stood the test of time very well. Watched it with the kids’ recently and they loved it.

      And banned* in Ireland on its release in 1979. It was cleared for video release in 1987.

    WISE MAN #1: Well– well, we must see him. We have brought presents.

    MANDY: Out!

    WISE MAN #2: Gold. Frankincense. Myrrh.

    MANDY: Well, why didn’t you say? He’s over there. Sorry the place is a bit of a mess. Well, what is myrrh, anyway?

    WISE MAN #3: It is a valuable balm.

    MANDY: A balm? What are you giving him a balm for? It might bite him.

    Aww good times. RIP Terry
