David Carnelli - Human Classical Statue

Posted by: Michael Palaeologus Today, 10:33AM



As Spring commences and Summer comes into view, the weather improves and the sun shines through the leaves creating dappled patterns on the lawns and hearts of East Dulwich.


Minds turn to al fresco parties and barbecues.


I have attended many of these events and have often felt that there is something lacking. A cultural void in what is otherwise a lovely afternoon of grilled bangers, cold Pinot in plastic cups and gently broiling human skin.


What is needed is one significant element that will transport your otherwise mundane suburban party to ancient Greece or Rome. Lift your guests from Croxted Road to the Coloseum, from Crystal Palace Road to the Parthenon:


Rent yourself -- DAVID CARNELLI, HUMAN CLASSICAL STATUE


Many people have commented on David Carnelli's similarity to the young Apollo and so building on this amazing likeness David has kindly decided to offer his services to the community as a live decorative fixture.


His services can be delivered in a number of ways:

1 - The static statue. David can stay still for up to 20 minutes at a time, moving between classical poses, gazing into the distance, silent yet commanding

2 - The reciting statue. David can recite from classical literature, in your actual Greek or Latin if required, entertaing your guests with the enormity of his declamation

3 - The nude statue. For those with specialist tastes. Please note that David is fully depilated; if you require the more natural look, 6 weeks notice is required

4 - The human fountain. Please supply ample quantities of Evian mineral water to keep him topped up.

5. - The athlete. David can perform like an ancient Greek Olympian. Its a quite a sight.


Many Forumites will vouch for David's flexibility and imagimation, if you have any particular requests please do not hesitate to contact:

Funny funny stuff from MP. The only April Fool's 'gag' to work. Took me in completely.

From the Karavan thread, by ontheedge:


I would like to buy an eastern European country which ones are you selling as I intend to set up an independent anarchist state for those of a sensitive nature, there will be no banks I will just take everyone's money, it will be pram free and there will be no nick knack shops, there will be no variety of food or people so no complaints. Everyone will be between 25 -35 so let me know quick so utopia can be in sight and we can stop the moaning on here for those who don't fit into said categories

Thank you

From the 'What Paper Do You Read' thread (which, amazingly, I had to resurrect from page 5!) Laughed out loud several times.

I can cope with a bias in papers, thats not a problems for me.


Its the jewel encrusted literary turd at the top of the Tony parsons & Julie Myerson shit heap. Awful handwringing, simpering, unoriginal, reactionary cod left poop sheet for the smug earnest pushy @#$%& who make my every living minute seem like a lifetime in the burning heat of my own bespoke agnostic hell


The saturday issue has extremes - It has the Guide, an pocket sized handy entertainment guide that I find both original & invaluable. It also has the magazine - which each week seems to be a shopwcase for the winners of the most numbingly dull yet most annoying columnists of the year - it makes the ES magazine seem like a @#$%&' seminal agitptop revolutionary tome

Did actually laugh out loud at this one. Nice work Brenda.

SNORKY:

I pay ?6 quid in Peckham to my Cypriot stylists,who dont smoke. which is a bit cheaper.I do look like a coconut afterwards though.


I read this whilst been on hold on the phone - I was cracking up when my call was finally picked up and couldn't stop giggling to the operator who must have thought I was mad.

Excellent work here from ???? from the Police On St Aidans Road thread -

Does anyone know why there were a group of about four or five police officers hanging out on St Aidan's this afternoon?

It was Knock Down Ginger' with Jimi hendrix that did it for me.

My dears I sat back on my haunches and simply bayed with laughter...

*Bob* has been on good form generally, but this.....


To be honest they might as well dispense with the formalities, wheel-on an enormous phallus at the start of the show for them to intermittently gawp at, and then spend the next hour drinking sweet white wine and flicking through 'Heat' whilst they get their hair done.


on the subject of Loose Women (the daytime show, not just loose women generally) was particularly good and gave me a much needed laugh at the end of an utterly crappy day.


Thanks *Bob*

You seem clinically disinhibited so just run naked , we all know you're single and a bit of a c*ck so you wont embarrass anybody will you ?


27 posts & all your cards on the table....good work !

What a great line - and I hope Davy took it as humour, or he'll be looking for you at the next EDF drinks.

    • The chancellor is exploring new opportunities (  and rightly so) for raising tax revenue in an endeavour to tackle the debt burden facing the nation. One think tank has floated the possibility of taxing  remittances  sent overseas by UK residents using a mix of formal channels  such as banks Western Union, MoneyGram, Wise and WorldRemit.  The proliferation of Western Union agencies has become notable in recent years. It is estimated that  around £28.5 billion was remitted to such countries as India, Pakistan, Nigeria and  countries in the Caribbean. Imposing such a tax could reduce capital outflows and result in greater investment here in the UK. The USA is introducing a tax at the rate of 1% effective 1/1/2026. Canada, Oman and Saudi Arabia are expected to follow suit.
    • I'm trying to be civil, see things from different perspectives and avoid arguments. The grey economy is cash in hand, so no tax to be paid, Chancellor loses out, we all win. Zero hrs contracts must be tough not knowing where or when the next work is coming from.  My position might not be great, but with a bit of sensible weekly shopping, stocking up on best buys etc. one survives and life ain't that bad.  
    • I'm trying to find a venue for my daughter's 18th but it's really difficult. Most venues don't want 18th birthday parties. We were looking at Brockwell Hall (The newly refurbed big ol' house in the park) but they want 4.5k for a night which has to finish at 11pm. My daughter tells me her friends don't go out till 11 which I think may be an exageration but I get her point. I'm looking for a bar/club type venue where I can have a DJ till 1/2am and that's about it. Any ideas would be appreciated.
