Happy St. Patrick's Day

Sadly there won't be any wild live Irish music sessions this St. Patricks Day in La Gomera and in Ireland.   Hope the above image I took in Ireland some time ago will cheer you up.  CHEERS... and don't stop having a laugh.

It's a large cake...

...''and you're stood on the cherry on top''. Sign at the Mirador del Santo viewpoint in Arure,  above the village of Taguluche

Baby please don't throw...

I spotted this funny sign a few days a go in the toilet of a restaurant here.

Well, we wouldn't throw anything at the bathroom anyway, would we ? 

You often see similar signs in toilets here on La Gomera albeit mostly written in better English. So what do they want to tell us ?

The sewerage system in most places here on La Gomera (and generally in the Canary Islands) can't cope with paper and sanitary items and if these are thrown into the toilet bowl it can easily lead to blockages. The general rule is: If you can spot a bucket or other container beside or near the toilet bowl, then you should use that for the disposal of toilet paper, etc. , but don't just throw it AT it, throw it IN please. 

Team up with fish and eat a friend

...according to this signage spotted by Martin Fagan in the Canaries and first published in the Telegraph:

... and don't forget to order fried dads (papas fritas) with your French-blue friend Gordon, the chicken.

Lanzarote salmon eat Prime Minister

Oh my God, not only do Lanzarote's vicious monster salmon eat the Prime Minister, they also gobble up the 'Royal House' before they get smoked in the town of Uga, according to this menu:

Thank God there are no salmon on Lanzarote !    (Image source: J. van Drimmelen)
