Laura and Wild China

Alan and I watched an interesting documentary called 'Wild China' last night. It featured the stunning and remote landscape of Yunnan.However, the pronunciation of Yunnan caused us to smirk, as it sounded like, 'Your Nan'.Not very funny so far you might think, but imagine trying to keep a straight face as the presenter invited us to feast our gaze upon Your Nan's tropical south. The camera panned around the dense forest of Your Nan and the wildlife which inhabited it. We were invited to examine the sticky sap of Your Nan's bush and view the elephants, which can only be found in Your Nan.By the end of this programme we had almost collapsed with seizures from laughing and Alan's whole head had gone red.We went to bed after Wild China but couldn't get to sleep because we were still convulsing about Your Nan's tropical south. As soon as one of us tried to go to sleep, the other mischieviously recreated the presenters serious tone and deadpan delivery of Your Nan's bush shouts.When we awoke this morning it started again and Alan commented that he couldn't believe it was all still funny 12 hours later.I posed the question, 'Is it still funny because it was really funny, or is it still funny because we are a pair of biffs?'We could not agree upon an answer.
