The winners were:

First: Ploossashanj - Visitors to the island observe a Bermuda independence salesman hard at work.

Second: silencedogood - “So that's how I got out of the tourism business and began building my glue empire...”

Third: Tiger Bay - With no warning, the Equine Division of the BIU laid down tools over a supervisory dispute.

Honourable mentions:

Adjustah - Horse overcome after installing the Global Positioning Suppository.

VB - Seahorse could not handle the extra business gained by 150 non GPS taxis being taken off the road.

Darkside - The equine reaction to the news that "P" would be taking a horse and buggy to work to promote sustainable development was less than favourable.

Zoom - Horse: "Fack bye, Um TIRED!"

Worst horse gag:

Martin - Owner: Are you ok? Horse: Neigh lad - I'm not.

Thanks Limey--tough competition this week. Congrats all.

My vote for #1 is Adjustah’s “Horse overcome after installing the Global Positioning Suppository.” That is SO funny—far and away!

Tiger Bay...

Apologies - just realised your entry re: BIU. Pleased you came 3rd.

Thanks RedOnion - appreciate the vote. I have to admit the GPS and the BIU are great contenders as well. A lot of funny ones and none too OTT that the RSPCA has Limey in the stocks.

Come now, Limey, surely this deserved a favourable mention:

Alex: "A horse, a horse...my kingdom for a horse".

Horse: "Oh shut up Alex".

- Martin

If a future Shakespeare were to chronicle Alex the Lesser...surely this period of decay and decadence at the top would be appropriate?

Cicero...

Keep talking my man - keep talking.

In fairness to Phil, he has the good grace to admit he has a strange sense of humour.
