I used to work with a marvellous creature called Anna. It didn’t do very much but it did entertain us all hugely. It was a bit of a potty-mouth but it was always funny, never more-so than when throwing it’s bizarre phrases into the mix. I found a list I began a while back and it made me laugh like a drain.
Here’s a smattering.
1: (Singing the Beach-Boys classic) “Gonna have fun, fun, fun ‘cos my daddy took my tuba away.”
2: “I’m happy go lightly!”
3: “I’ve paid through the arm and leg for this service…” (Relating a tale about Comet charging for early delivery slot and then not turning up.)
4: “They say that in London you’re only ever 5 minutes away from a rat.”
5: “He said I shouldn’t touch it with a goldmine.”
6: (By far the best) “There were six people in yellow and six in blue, like six aside football… only basketball.”
7: “She’s got a nice body but a boat (race) like a dropped pie.”
8: “The heat hit me like a tropical blanket.”
9: “It’s not worth the weight in gold it’s written on.”
10: “I love snorkelling so much I could do it ‘till my face fell off.”
11: “He started it, he opened up the gauntlet.”
12: “It just feels like I’ve been treading water and I haven’t reached the bottom.”

Thanks Anna. I may have to add 'laugh like a camel' to the list.
..and I don't even think camels do laugh, they just grunt and moan instead. My best tip from living in the Middle East "never stand downwind from a camel"
Hippos laugh. Like Jabba the Hut.
