Gifs not working, top two pictures, why?

Very soon now I will be leaving the humdrum working life for a few days as a holiday maker. This is particularly nice since Alice (and Alistair) flew ahead of me and I have naturally been missing them a great deal.
So in about forty eight hours I will be heading for the airport and the paraffin budgie to get me away from here and back with my wonderful extended family. It seems that I have been doing this sort of thing for centuries but, of course, in reality it is only decades.
Not quite the same life as many people I suppose but on the whole I have enjoyed it and I do tend to agree with the blob person's sentiments on the right. And passing through so many different countries and cultures I have grown to realise that the world would be a much less interesting place if we did not have so many differences. So I do not recommend trying to change places by invading them.
However if our differences were all as obvious as this army type then perhaps there would be less invasions!
