Unzipped!
Sender: Mijo1981
U is for 'Unzipped'!
The duckling has obviously gotten into an unfamiliar situation. Where is its mother, quick?!! Or quack??!!
A RAS card from Mijo1981. But somehow, the kitten seems to peek curiously at the quirky duckling card above!
Urinal
Sender: Nekorin
U is for 'Urinal'
Techiman, Ghana, 2006
This brilliant postcard made me laugh out loud! Yes, "Urinal" means toilet but we don't use that term for the general public in my country. Which term do you usually use to refer to the toilet?
The washroom, restroom, bathroom, lavatory, water closet, w.c.?
The loo, the porcelain goddess, the crapper, the throne, the gents/the ladies or the john…?
It pays to know the correct term when travelling and especially, the native language for it! :-)

Bilikasana
Sender: BeckyS
Text on card:-
BILIKASANA: This is a slight variation on the human yoga pose known as Cat Posture. While cat yogis appreciate their recognition in the name of this posture, simply posing as a cat is slightly boring for them, so they prefer the variation.
LOL!!!!
[The real thing!:-
Bilikasana - Yoga Cat Pose
The Bilikasana is a a popular yoga warm up exercise, where you imitate a cat's movements by arching and hollowing your back. This exercise stretches and strengthens your abdominals, your shoulders and your back muscles. Move slowly and breathe in and out deeply and slow.]

Perfect Partnership
Sender: Patrick & Jutta
I think the card states "It's the little niceties and mutual helpfulness which make a perfect partnership".
Well....the man can actually take over the broom and sweep the ground, just sayin'! :-D

The stamp for this card is missing, presumably lost in transit, leaving just the shadow of its shape, accentuated by the postal mark...
