It's 1964, and in a
village near Dublin the whining of a hoover disturbs the peaceful Irish
countryside. An elderly women, dressed in a sparking dress and carrying
a wand, struggles to cook breakfast. Due to a slight wand mishap she has
turned her stove into a hoover and brought a half-burnt sausage to life. The story is told from the point of view of the (highly irritated) burnt sausage, so watch out for some strong language (and smells) and beware of smoke alarms. |
Lost inside a giant
block of 80-year old cheese, a damsel searches desperately for an exit.
The only possibility seems to be to crawl through a pair of
banana-flavoured socks. Meanwhile, in the world outside the cheese, King Auther has lost his socks. But at least he has his cheese-grater Excabider, which he pulled out of a very gooey piece of Brie, thus claiming the throne of France. Apart from his lost socks, he also needs a Queen, but how little he knows . . . |
Boy wizard gets fed up
sitting in the back of a car stopped in a jam on the M5. He starts to
magic-up a story with 4.812,916,666,258 threads, but unfortunately one
thread contains man-eating babies. Watching the subsequent carnage from the safety of the sky, a bird concludes the boy wizard is a villain and wonders where he went wrong in life. Having eaten all the drivers, the babies finally begin to wonder where they are, and who's going to change their nappies in the night. |

The Bunny's view: 'Aaaaargh! Help me! I'm standing on a cloud!' Meanwhile, people are disappearing. And the government continue in their efforts to figure out just what that meaty-like thing is in the middle of a Big Mac. Is there a connection? Will the bunny fall through the cloud? Are people vanishing after eating Big Macs? |
An Irish priest
pursues the insane Mytey Cheese (a giant wedge-shaped piece of Dairy
Lea) down into the London Underground.
The priest pretends to be a vegan to outsmart the Dairy Lea by romancing it back onto the streets of London thus preventing total cheesy tube warfare breaking out. P.S. The Pope subsequently gave permission for priests to marry cheeses. |
Wow! What a plot!
Everyone thinks Honey is such a sweet person, but we can't be sure since
the story is told from the point of view of a dead friend . . .
And then there's her family! Living in a near bankrupt village in a made up country (presumably with a made up nasty bank that loaned them made up money). But never mind, there's a happy ending - flash-bake for tea. |
