Lighting Fixture Of Death

.


Something is definitely amiss here at World Of Poot Headquaters. First there was the Windowsill Of Death incident and now...

During a routine piece of maintenance in the South Wing drawing room, our resident electrician - Bob Spark - was horrified to discover yet more terrifying scenes of insect demise.


When interviewed by the local Death Squad, headed up by Chief Inspector Detective Hammer Von Clark, Mr. Spark said "Oh, it was awful. Just awful. I mean, I've seen a few sights in my time. All it needs is those extra 20 watts of energy and... well... you just wouldn't want to be in their shoes. Err... hang on - do insects wear shoes?"

If you are of a nervous disposition, or just don't like the thought of chargrilled bug, you might like to look away now.






Oh, the humanity!

The Return Of The Vandal!

.



Just as things were starting to quieten down on the Babbington/vandal/wall artist front, lo and behold! I stumbled on this new one in the town of Swimp. It was still fairly wet, so our imposter couldn't have gone too far.

I feel the net may be closing in - who knows, the true identity of this so called 'Babbington' may be revealed very soon... ;)



In case you can't make out what out phantom scribbler has said, it's ''Babbington Is Back!''

Bat Poot - original artwork


Following the recent success of
action blockbusters The Black Knight and Bat-Nev, much has been made about the relative merits of the chosen cast members. Clearly, it was important that the actors be at the top of their game... but everyone needs inspiration.

We are proud to announce that, for the princely sum of £3.72 and a bunch of 'Computers For Schools' vouchers, World Of Poot has successfully obtained one of the original sketches on which the lead character was based.


This is truely art, my friends - by any definition. Enjoy!

We're off to crack open the Babysham and KP nuts now. I personally can't wait to see Nev get up on the Karaoke.

So brace yourself Mitch - looks like it's gonna be one helluva party!

Here's the future of mindless 'entertainment'!

Random Objects: #4 - Dead Meat


Funny what you find at the end of the garden, isn't it?

This poor critter appears to be feeling a little deflated, a mere
trace of its former self:


But just what do we have here? Is it a bird? Is it a plane?
No, clearly not.
I'm not an expert, and I have not yet performed an autopsy,
but I'm guessing this is an ex-puddy tat.

Closer inspection may lead our keen roadkill enthusiasts to confirm this status:


Poor old Tiddles! Still, it's what he would have wanted.


(Disclaimer: No animals were harmed in the gathering
of our research; this one was already a gonner!)

The Most Pointless Video...Returns!


Once again, and after much demand from hundreds of people (far too many to list here, and indeed - publish all their comments, naturally), The Most Pointless Video returns....
It's bigger, bolder...and even more ridiculous.

The Things You Find! (Random Objects: #3)


Okay, so this morning I went on a ramble in the countryside (it's okay Neville, I remembered to pack my anorak), and as well as seeing some lovely nature, it was this that really caught my eye!




In the middle of a field, obviously planted by some music fan as a CD seed, now grows a CD plant. Worth it? Possibly....




Perhaps when I return to the site - if I so wish - it might have cultivated into a DVD rack or possibly an entire volume of Bob Dylan discs.....




It's a real pity that this disc wasn't playable. I'd like to have known what 'foo' was.....
