#HumourInChurches
Late as usual to join #AnimalsInChurchesHour, but let's start with this pair of classics from the facade of Salamanca Cathedral. The spaceman, and a mythical beast with a double scoop ice cream. 🙂 #HumourInChurches

The Pipe Smoker. A grotesque on St Cyriac's Church, Lacock. #HumourInChurches #AnimalsInChurchesHour

Not sure whether this counts as #HumourInChurches, but it made me smile! St Cyriac's Church, Lacock.

I assume these misericords from the Cathedral in Plasencia, SW Spain are meant to be humorous, though I'm not entirely sure what is going on in two of them! Perhaps the wood carver simply had a fetish about buttocks? #HumourInChurches #AnimalsInChurchesHour

You know that feeling when you've just finished restoring the whole cathedral, and realise you've got a head left over? 🤔🤔🤔 Salamanca. #HumourInChurches #AnimalsInChurchesHour

A final offering for #HumourInChurches, a medieval face palm. Technically not in a church, but very close by! Carving on Penniless Porch, Wells. #AnimalsInChurchesHour
