Introducing Finbarr

Once there was a monkey called Finbarr and he was known for being the funkiest monkey in the region of the forest that he lived in. He was well known for doing funky dance moves high up in the tree tops on the tree branches and developed a couple of dance moves that became viral sensations on the internet because his cousin Greg would film him and upload the videos to his Youtube channel which was called Finbarr the Funky Monkey Dance Time.

One of the moves was called the funky monkey and when doing that move Finbarr would dance around like the funky monkey that he was. When Finbarr was travelling for work he would always take his portable funky monkey bar kit with him and set it up in his hotel room so he could always have some climbing equipment to dance on and hang around on.
