If life seems jolly rotten,
There’s something you’ve forgotten!
And that’s to laugh and smile and dance and sing,
When you’re feeling in the dumps,
Don’t be silly chumps,
Just purse your lips and whistle — that’s the thing!
And always look on the bright side of life.
Taken from the song Always Look on the Bright Side of Life, as memorably used in the film Monty Python’s Life of Brian (1979). The message of the song has become a British anthem, reached number three in the charts in 1991 and was even performed at the 2012 Olympics.

The brilliance was that the song was not blasphemous
Is it your favourite Monty Python film?
Yes
It is the best one really. And so quotable. What did the Romans ever do for us makes me laugh even thinking about it. I really do have a soft spot for The Holy Grail mind.
I liked the haggle bit
Soooooo Ray 🙂

It’s a great reminder as we head into… Monday!
For sure! Tomorrow is bank holiday here, but I’ll definitely remember it for the next one. I hope you get super sunny skies your end.
one of my favorite

It’s still a very funny film. So much talent within that group.
