If the unfeasibly fine weather of the past fortnight has not been enough to lift your spirits, here’s another collection Friday Funnies courtesy of HTFP readers.
We’ve also had a clutch of election-related funnies sent in over the past week – but we’re saving those for a post-polling day special next Friday to cheer us all up as we contemplate five years of David Cameron/Gordon Brown/Nick Clegg (delete as appropriate).
In the meantime, thanks for staying vigilant and please keep them coming to: [email protected].

We’re not sure the chap in the middle should be so shy considering he’s entering a singing contest (from Scarborough Evening News):
Media Wales didn’t seem to be able to make up its mind here about its daily poll:
And finally…perhaps the St Albans and Harpenden Review should have given a little more thought to the positioning of these two stories on its website.
