I've no talent what so ever with visual arts, and I love squirrels, I was wondering if anybody would draw me a squirrel pic.

it's a UK joke... someone or other (probably some famous person) from the Wirral had the nickname "the Squirrel from the Wirral", presumably because it rhymed, and thus people from the Wirral are known as Squirrels... i think, anyway...

my scanner doesn't work so i can't draw you a squirrel. :( but a google image search should yield plenty...

sorry, I but I dont get europeian humor, I guess I need to watch The Kumars at no. 42 more often on BBC America. I prefer Larry the Cable Guy or Jeff Foxworthy and other Southern American comics.

Off topic, but European and British humour is very, very different. British humour tends toward irony, sarcasm, political satire, can be very dry/dead-pan, or be totally surreal. Czech humour is like kiddy slapstick or just really daft - although it also can lean toward the surreal. German humour does exist, contrary to popular belief, but I haven't yet worked it out.

Really? Because I've been to Germany and I never saw it. :lol:

(I'm just joking. I really liked Germany and the people I met there.)

And when all that's done, the forum originator still doesn't have his squirrel drawn for him.

The German sense of humour has some parallels to the British one as far as I can tell from the German people I have known - it seems to take the form of a dry wit, hard to spot as it is quite subtle but often hilarious. I like Germans too, Bec - my neighbour is German and the kids all love her, her name is Gisela but she has everyone call her Geesh as no one can pronounce it right... :D

Oh sorry for carrying on with the off topicness rakkety tamm...

I can't draw, but here's a site for you with loads of squirrelness. The pics on this page might make good avatars :wink:

yo ed, sry, but it does need to be a drawing due to the fact that it will go on my Jazz band uniform, along side (some where on the Tee Shirt) the pic on this shirt http://images.auctionworks.com/fullView.asp?img=http://images.auctionworks.com/hi/65/65061/esm-squirrelpranoshi.jpg

I really, really wish I had a scanner right now; I could draw you one if I did; most of the things I draw are animals, my own imaginary characters, and my pets.

Yet another work of art from yours truly. A masterpiece, if I do say so myself.
