I'm Bored

I'm so bored I did the washing up.

And cleaned the sink.

Then I promoted an Adelie penguin (Pygoscelis adeliae) to Rear Admiral.

Where will it all end?

Penguinrearadmiral comics.

Bit like Jack Aubrey in "Master and Commander", only the penguin can only flap his flippers and the crew have to guess why.

Throw in the Maturin penguin, who may or may not be able to play the cello, and you have a barrel of fun.

The immensely great "lesser of two weevil" jokes gets lost a bit when - on camera - you have a couple of clueless penguins slapping their flippers together and hoping for some fish.

Bo'sun: So we're rounding the Horn and into the Pacific Sea, eh Cap'n?

Penguin: Quark.

Chief Artificer: What do you say, Mr Maturin?

Another penguin: Quark.

Bo'sun: Better do what they said.
