Hello Folks,
It is a great day for us here at Gfb as the white smoke billowed from the Sistine Chapel toilets and our regular columnist, philosopher and toilet expert, Bob On The Pot was elected by the Conclave of Cardinals to become the next Pope.
“I’m a bit surprised to be honest,” Pope Bob told us, “One minute I am applying ointment to my rash and the next I am being ushered forth amongst all these old geezers in dresses and being adored by the Angels on high! My lovely wife Shirley is delighted – she’s proper religious, watches Songs of Praise and The Antiques Roadshow on a regular basis and reckons that it is about time all these old Queens had a woman leading them. Bless You My Children. Amen. Off to The Doubting Thomas And Duck for a pint to celebrate. Laters.”
Bob foresaw this in his last column for Gingerfightback which you can read here!
Brilliant choice. Some sanity to the papacy at last.
Rest assured Red, Gambling, Drinking, Gluttony and Avarice are all to be recleassified as essential items for a religious life.
I might even have to convert.
Not a bad life hey!
diarrhea and diocese = diorrcese – a new religious sect is forming here and I want in!
I’ve been told on numerous occasions I am a cult.
Brilliant. Someone who understands the complexities of plumbing is bound to do well with all the politics. He seems to be quite a regular person?
High Fibre High Church as I always say.
Why don’t we get this information in the States??
It’s a conspiracy – like JFK.
Should’ve known.
couldn’t have a better poop. I mean pope.
Amen
All hail Pope Shirley the first. Great fun read.
Cheers!
Looks a bit draughty
God moves in mysterious ways Joe
While I’m sure the Papal bowl is astounding in its comfort, is the ceiling high enough to accomodate the hat?
Robbed of me rightful throne after only a day Guap. BASTARDS!
