Knocky's Nose
Mon nez est retiré.
What baffles me is why the parents on the bench didn't leap up and punt the f*cking monkey into outer space via its' hairy arse the second it grabbed their kid...
One of my favourites is still my dad telling me the one when Jacko escaped and broke into Reginald Spells the wholesale fruit and veg suppliers in Worthing..They were a big place but Jacko took a bite out of just about every piece of fruit in the place. The local Bobby knocked on my uncle and dads door and asked if he could come down the road and - firstly identify the escaped monkey as their own and then try and catch him or restrain somehow because he had also bitten the first copper to turn up after the call in... he was very hard to recapture as well.
Great stories - keep them coming. May be a separate Jacko thread?
As I said before he was an absolute bugger to catch once he’d got out.
They used to leave a trail of peanuts across the garden to the main pile which were placed under a large bread bin. The bread bin was held up at one end with a stick tied to a long length of string. You get the idea yes. The problem was that Jacko would just hold the bread bin up with one hand whilst eating the peanuts with the other and chattering his teeth knowing full well he’d put one over the family again.
Was there a sign saying 'free peanut's, and the bread bin had the word ACME printed on it.
I now have images of your uncle (possibly dressed as a coyote) chasing the monkey on roller skates with a ACME rocket on his back!
