Property por...hang about!

Post by Gob »

Ok, while looking at some property porn, Hen and I came across this place.

Can anyone spot what made us do a double take?


edited to change; "Porperty por...hang about!" into English.

Bloody hell that is ridiculous!
Who in their right minds has an outdoor dining area in England?!?

Well it's either that or what looks (on my phone) like Dartmouth ponies in the bedroom...
Why is it that when Miley Cyrus gets naked and licks a hammer it's 'art' and 'edgy' but when I do it I'm 'drunk' and 'banned from the hardware store'?

I expected two big dogs, because it looked like two big dog beds in an earlier picture - but those are some very strange looking dogs? They look like miniature water buffalo.

I wish I could blow up the photo.

Lovely house, though - the decor isn't my taste, but I love the views and the basic architecture.

Has someone photoshopped the Wildebeasts into that photo do you think?
If you can keep your head while those around you are losing theirs, you may have misjudged the situation.

Wildebeasts! Yes, of course.

I also noticed upon second look, some bunnies in the window seat of another bedroom.

eta: Thanks, Gob - I'd have hated starting my week with such a misspelling!

What'd you expect Gobs mind is permanently stuck on porn
Okay... There's all kinds of things wrong with what you just said.

I do not think they are photoshopped in. I thought they were goats. There are two goat beds in front of the Aga.
Bah!

The place is haunted?

They appear to be miniature wildebeests; they are popular conversation-starters, as they afford the opportunity to ask, "What's gnu?"

Sue, your puns have cost me another beverage! Well done! :ok
Personally, I don’t believe in bros before hoes, or hoes before bros. There needs to be a balance. A homie-hoe-stasis, if you will.

Goat beds, Hen? Is it common to keep indoor goat pets in the UK?

Well they didn't look like dog beds to me, and lo and behold ... goats!

These English types are exentric.

It's advertised as a 4 br but only 3 are shown?

Exentric = "goat keepers"?

Why would you add that?

It added nothing. So should have you.

There's gnuthing I can add to make that any punnier.

Frankly, I was waffling on the punchline; the "B" version was, "Tell me every little thing that's gnu."
GAH!
