Just a quick post as penance for not working out today (New Year's resolution still being met!):


Gay penguin pair tie the knot

The besotted male birds turned out to be such a great parenting pair their keepers thought they deserved a reward and let them marry.

They were once given the cold shoulder at the wildlife park in China for stealing heterosexual couples' eggs to nest as their own.

But after being allowed to try out with eggs rejected by their mothers the couple have become the zoo's best penguin parents.

Now keepers at Polarland Zoo in Harbin, north east China, have rewarded their devotion with a wedding day.

One wore a tie and the other was dressed in a red blouse - a traditional Chinese bridal colour - as they stepped into their icy wedding room to the music of the Wedding March.

Keepers then served them their favourite dish for the occasion - spring fish.

"They have been a good couple and deserved their reward," said one keeper.

Now back to the books.

[Ok, I lied. The best thing ever is Jae and Changmin singing "It's Raining Men" but this is still up there on the list.]
