Impossible Friday Caption Contest
Inspired by Ian's comment on Sex News and by my friend Guido's Friday Caption Contest, I have decided to introduce a caption contest to Thought Experiments, though, this being me, it will probably be sporadic and unpredictable. My contest is much more difficult than anybody else's as I will be deliberately choosing pictures that defy captions, especially witty ones. So captions for the above please. If it's any help, which I doubt, the above was taken in Scotland.
