Where’s Willy?

on January 15, 2012

You know that game called ‘Where’s Wally?’ in which you have to find him in amongst numerous other characters? I’m not quite sure why ‘Wally’ is now ‘Waldo’ because, in Australia, ‘wally’ is just slang for idiot, but perhaps ‘wally’ is yet another politically incorrect term. Anyway, here is an example of the game:

Now, if you have read my previous post  you’ll realise that this morning I had to traverse Australia with four emus – the Emerys. We have only just returned and I’m exhausted, so I thought it only fair to exhaust you guys too by presenting you with a challenge. It’s a game called ‘Where’s Willy?’ The first person to respond by telling us how many Willy Wagtails are in the wattle tree pictured below will receive a reward. Good luck!

By the way, in Australia, ‘willy’ is slang for a particular male appendage, so I would like it noted that this is simply an unfortunate coincidence and this game is about birds and nothing else.

    Seven? Three? Twelve? None? I hope the prize is worth it! M.L.

  2. 2 Willy Wagtails?

    I’ve seen and heard of “where’s Wally” but for the life of me I can’t remember what Wally looks like!

    Hi,
    I was smiling before I even clicked onto your post, the heading “Where’s Willy” the post was totally different than what this old mind thought. I can only smile, because I cannot see any wagtails. 😆
