Ends well

Take a hard boiled egg. Buy it from Sainsbury's. Strike it repeatedly against your forehead. You now have egg on your face. Stew lightly until bruised. Baste it until lambasted. Throw out the lamb – and down the Château Villandretmouillé 1973 until (w)asted. Throw up.

You need – an IQ of > 73 (available from most large retail inlets inlaws). Coriander will do instead – except in February. Add a pint of whisky. Throw the baby out, being careful to conserve the bath water. Butcher cows on their way home. Then simmer lightly until thoroughly simmered.

Arthur made a sudden mid-recipe reappearance. Now was his chance. It was another case for

WOMBAT MAN.

But it was too late – his arch-surrealist foe

AARDVARK FISH

had go(a)t there first. Using his recipe book, however, Wombat Man succeeded in out-weirding his adversary, who turned out to be none other than

PROFESSOR KARSWELL

that ends well.

"I can't wholly remember what I thought about before I thought about literary theory."

Ahem. Discuss. Answers on the third side of a postcard please.

Adam and Eve it

"Zebra," said Adam. "If it had been on time, I should have called it 'Migraine'. Trust God to disconnect the aerial."

    At this moment, Eve arrived. "Z already!" she said, "And what about 'BICYCLE'? You've forgotten, haven't you? It's all very well you sitting there thinking up names for things just so that you can order them about! It'll all go horribly wrong, you'll see! And here I am, trudging about Paradise. How can I possibly get you those nice banana things for your tea without a bicycle! You remembered a name for 'banana' well enough, didn't you? And you spelled 'kitchen' with a 'C', just to get it named in the first half hour. Well, you can get your own bananas from now on – I expect that ridiculous aardvark thing will help you. Your sense of humour is so puerile! You just had to name the things with funny noses first, didn't you? Aardvark! Anteater! ..."

    But by this time Adam had slipped away. As he wandered about, his head throbbing with a terrible zebra, he met the Serpent. "Greetings" said the Serpent. "Saluton!" said Adam. Adam explained his problem. "Simple!" said the Serpent, "it's like fishing." Adam looked puzzled.

    "You stand there, I'll throw you the fish," the Serpent explained patiently. This made Adam uneasy, but he couldn't identify any especial reason for this.

    "So?" he persisted, "what about bicycles?"

    "Simple," said the Serpent. "Call that banana 'One pound fifty', then give it to me!"

    "Okay," said Adam, mystified. His doubts about the Serpent were both allayed and confirmed when it offered him a large, banana-shaped object in return for the banana.

    An hour later, Adam knocked on the door of Eve's bower. "I've come about the reaping!" he grinned.

Moonmoose

"There's been an indoor yak throwing competition Louis XIV"

For there are footprints on the ceiling.

It hung there for a moment, its antlers entangled in the chandelier drops like dewy twigs, a look of hopeless ontological doubt in its tender eyes. Its hind hooves kicked uncertainly in the living room air. Its broad snout twitched mournfully, and it started to fall. Up! Up! wrenching house and video with it, through ceiling, and, with shattering of slates, roof. The earth dwindled to a slightly bluish melon, the clouds tore past like net curtains in June. Oh, how it fell and fell!

Until its antlers buried themselves, abruptly, in a soft substance like salt, slightly mildewed marble, covered with a thick rind. There it remained, still ostensibly preoccupied with the difference between Being and beings. And that is why, O reader...

There is a moose in the moon. --> Mooo --> Moo --> Moomoo!

Still completely other
