:lolwut: is this boomer banter ?
Fresh from its triumphal reconstructions of the golden age of film music at the Proms the John Wilson Orchestra will perform the “Overture to Carry on Camping” and the “On the Buses Suite”

Join in.

Think of a pun or other wordplay on a book, film, TV show, song or similar but based around (today) the Proms or classical music. There is a new theme every day.

So,

Herrar mínir,
kannski hefur einhver sagt ykkur þeir hafi séð
Fossegrimmen í búningsklefanum/sturtusvæðinu.
Ef þú rekst á nakinn aðlaðandi ungan mann sem
sest niður og spilar á fiðlu, þá er það líklega bara einn af vinnufærslunni.
Hann getur beðið þig um stela kjöti handa honum.
Engan veginn verða við þessari beiðni.
Til vera á öruggri hliðinni skaltu ganga rólega
aftur á bak við móttökuna og hylja bæði eyru svo tónlistin heilli þig ekki.
Hafðu líka vinstra augað lokað.
Stóra Steingerður er sjöunda dóttir sjöundu dóttur og mun fara örugglega með innrásarherinn.

Víglundur Auðbjörn Jörgensson

Herrar mínir,
kannski hefur þú misráðið Roðskórinn þinn?
Stóra Hrólfdís vikurstúlkan fann par á bak
við ferðamannasalinn snemma í morgun.
Þeir voru við hliðina á Upphluta dömu.
Ef þú vilt safna þessum hlutum skaltu bara
mæta í móttökuna og eiga næði spjall við stóru Oddfríði.
Hún sér um þau í sérstaka skápnum sínum ásamt
mörgum öðrum fatnaði,
hljóðfærum og Mastermind VHS spólum.
Kannski þú viljir frekar fjarlægja blettina úr Roðskórnum
þínum áður en þú notar þá aftur opinberlega?
Biddu bara stóra O um lánveitingu af Cillit Bang
úðanum hennar og gúmmílæðinu.

Nökkvi Oddkell Fjölvarsson
