I'm guessing this from around the taping of The Last Goon Show Of All in 1972.

youtu.be/vtOb_xlVY5I Contains nudity (do we really care?) A few more minutes of madness from Spike Milligan, Linzi Drew and a cash machine.
One day I’ll post the Irish noughts and crosses championship, but it’s so un PC I might not have the courage.

We need more people like Spike Milligan. He’s as mad as a mongoose and this is as crazy as it gets! The way he takes the picture off the wall at the height of the drama never fails to crack me up.
Not exactly PC, but pure brilliance!

Just been reminded by someone that today would have been the birthday of the late, great Spike Milligan.

Loved listening to old recordings of the Goon Show when I was young, the absurdist humour appealed to me hugely (friends and I even performed some at school). Soon found his war memoirs, and the Q series. Evolution of British comedy would have been very different without Spike.

Happy 105th birthday to Spike Milligna, the well-known BBC spelling error!

Smiling is infectious,
you catch it like the flu,
When someone smiled at me today,
I started smiling too.
I passed around the corner
and someone saw my grin.
When he smiled I realized
I’d passed it on to him.
I thought about that smile,
then I realized its worth.
A single smile, just like mine
could travel round the earth.
So, if you feel a smile begin,
don’t leave it undetected.
Let’s start an epidemic quick,
and get the world infected!

A lion is fierce,
His teeth can pierce,
The skin of a postman’s knee,
It serves him right,
Because of this bite,
He gets no letters you see.

Intending woodland (I want to be a tree!!! - there ' that's a good one) so probably no stone.

This is 'Spike' the new bike at Woy Woy wharf. Named Spike as I only ride Spike to and from Woy Woy station, and over the Spike Milligan bridge.

Nothing to do with the Black Adder sketch.
