Favourite Beetle?

Who's your favourite Beetle?

Best Answer to the first person to agree with me.

Ladybird.

If you mean "Beatle" then George Harrison.

[davebro]

Dung Beetle - or did you mean Beatle?

[bednobs]

cockchafer. They fly around in a straight line until they bump into something and then fly off in a different direction.

[Hopkirk]

Oh I loved that poem as a kid. (and still do)

[ynnafymmi]

The scarab for me.

[Mozz71]

BHG, I'm pretty sure they're the ones that gave me endless giggles as a wee lad camping with my folks. You used to hear them collide with the tent before sliding down the side with a comical whoosh, before, I assume, brushing themselves down and flying off in another direction.

[Mozz71]

Hoppy, I guess that the BA means you agree with me on George.

[Hopkirk]

Absolutely Mozz.

[bhg481]

Mozz - that's the one. We first came across them camping at Salisbury with a tent. They come out of the ground at dusk and provide endless entertainment.

[Mozz71]

Not just his musicianship (he was a fine songwriter and a truly gifted slide guitarist) but he seemed like a lovely, genuine bloke. Lennon I always felt was overrated and McCartney up himself. Nothing bad to say about Ringo, but I prefer George.

[Hopkirk]

I always felt that Lennon and McCartney both were their own biggest fans.

[ToraToraTora]

The dung beetle has always impressed me.

[roopower]

Beetle, stag. Beatle, George

[Arksided]

Never had one I preferred the collective.

George, the thoughtful one, especially in his later years with his long hair.

[cashier]

George. Didn't really like John, couldn't and still can't stand Paul and Ringo was just Ringo.
