The front fell off

These two guys are on every week at the end of the news on Australian ABC TV. A mock interview talking about an event/news of that week, mainly political satire.

Sometimes nature can be cruel, but there is always a sense of justice in its acts.
Note how the three dogs jointly attack the crocodile, one of them biting the mouth and the other the tail, so inmovilizing the croc, while the third deadly bites the soft abdomen.....

Crocodile be damned....As Guillermo well knows that green thing is the remains of my flamenco dress (see explanation on 'Where is This' thread) and the three dogs are miniature Spanish Hunting Dogs smuggled ashore from the motor-sailer 'Marie' late last night.
Luckily I managed to divert the dogs' attention by brandishing my castanets.. It did however leave me naked and running through the garden, which in turn startled the massed bands of the Brothers of Redemption about to begin their 3,000th rendering of 'Jesus Wants You For a Sunbeam...' They fled leaving my herbaceous border resembling a helicopter pad - which was promptly invaded by the local UFO club claiming it was a second 'Roswell' and my shredded flamenco dress the remains of an alien....

So many of those soviet engineers seemed to be raised on Thunderbirds

Would be a great talking point as a house boat.
