Patriotic Baboons Steal England Footie Flags
cheeky monkey
Baboons at Knowsley Safari Park in Merseyside have built up a huge collection of World Cup England flags … by stealing them from visitors’ cars.
Visitors are being warned to remove the flags from their vehicles before driving through the section where the 120 pilfering primates roam.
Safari Park general manager David Ross said: "If you think about it, this is hardly surprising. All the baboons were born here on Merseyside so they are Scousers through and through and probably just as football mad as everyone else in the area.”

Driving about the other day I saw about a dozen of them lying in the gutter in various places - obviously blown off. I wonder if this was some sort of "sign from above" about England World Cup hopes.
ReplyDeleteI had baboons in my garden in Benin.
Frobi: A dozen what? Flags? Or Scousers?
ReplyDeleteso that's what a Scouser is. I heard Lloydie say it on Coronation Street and thought it was just another word for hoodlum or something. Thanks MJ **gives thumbs up**
ReplyDeleteAs far as the baboons go...that's some funny shit right there
Pamer: Lloydie... or "Crackhead Craig" as he's known these days.
ReplyDeleteActually Hoodlum is a pretty good description of a Scouser.
ReplyDeletei refuse to believe that Lister smokes rock...it's all a frame up i say!!!
ReplyDeleteSo Frobi...is it that all Scousers are Hoodlums but not all hoodlums are necessarily Scousers??
wow, apparently baboons have also body-snatched English and German footie fans.
