😂 brilliant Barry, thanks so much for the laugh. Hope you’re completely better soon although having listened to this, I’m wondering if your ailment is mental.

Btw, the thing at the end is a troll I think. I’ve got a bag of them that my grandkids play with. Hope I’m not encouraging them down the dark path to transition…..is that a gonkphobic thing to say?

Yes this is a Gonk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gonk

They used to give them away at fun fair's as prizes. Not sure if that is still a thing or even if fun fairs are still a thing. I think I'm getting old now LOL.

What a performance! You’re quite the actor, Barry. I wondered why you’d gone AWOL; glad you’re on the mend.

I had a collection in the 70s; we used to call them gonks then.

Ah the old fable of the gonks. Did you know that the gonks led the way in fighting for the rights of elves, gnomes & fairies? Oh yes! However, because no one accepted them, they force teamed the gonk union onto the EGF union making it the EGFG + union. But still they couldn't get what they wanted so they got a troll with a camera to make a show about how to get a date with elves, because no elf wanted to date a pretend elf even though they knew how to spin gold.

Oh that it were just a fairy tale, but even the fairies are fed up with this one. 😉

I suspected you might have been unwell, and I'm very happy that you are now on the mend. Breakfast isn't proper breakfast without you to listen to over my bacon and eggs. Please stay well!

Are you sure you're not a troll? (They were around with gonks at the same time.)
