It’s Friday! So here’s a slideshow of pandas from around the world

Did you miss us?

WE KNOW, WE know, The Daily Edge has been quite slack of late in terms of our cute animal output but after a brief hiatus, the Friday slideshow is back.

And we’re bringing out the big guns.

To mark Panda Awareness Week, we have spent the past hour looking through our photo sources for images of pandas eating doughnuts, pandas playing on plastic rocking horses, pandas with politicians, pandas kissing and pandas doing other mundane things that are simply adorable…solely for your viewing pleasure. You, sirs and madams, are welcome.

It’s Friday! So here’s a slideshow of pandas from around the world
