The English are a funny lot
I refer to the English sense of humour. There seems to be nothing like it from any other part of the world.
The roll call of British comedians is long and glorious but some of the strangest humour (from a non-English perspective) is typified by Monty Python and David Adams, the latter writing The Hitch Hiker’s Guide to the Galaxy.
From which very funny book comes the following quote,
There is an art to flying, or rather a knack. Its knack lies in learning to throw yourself at the ground and miss. Clearly, it is this second part, the missing, that provides the difficulties.
