Homeless

Man walked into the shop and, pointing in a very pompous way to the top shelf behind me, asked for some of those things to hold his washing on the line. So I took him down a peg or two.

Sorry. That joke has been following me round for a few days looking for a home and I got fed up with it.

I know my mum wants to come down to my house and dig a 5 foot hole in the garden and fill it with water. She means well.

My favourite joke of this particular variety is extremely contrived:

Last night the barman in my local told me that if I could successfully jump up and tear down a couple of strips of meat that were hanging from the ceiling, my drinks would be free for the rest of the evening. However if I tried and failed, I would have to buy a round for everyone in the pub.

I thought about it, but decided the steaks were too high.

I actually had to go to hospital the other days because at home these piles of books fell on top of me. I only have my shelf to blame.

Actually it was my mum that was ill and I ran up to the hospital and they said do you want a stretcher I said that'll make her worse.

So, Hanni, knowing the answer was a stick and the joke was very old I thought I'd try for another punchline, and seeing as how the Chancellor of the Exchequer, Gordon Brown is in a bit of a sticky place at the moment I chose his name. Are you, by any chance, blond?

Steve Tilley said...

And it's St not ST. OK?

HAHAHA...

well yes i am blonde St (well fair to be exact) but in my defence you're mixing me up with the bottle blonde types;)

You know i meant the owl joke right?

Ugh...guys!

Steve Tilley said...

Hanni, sorry for not understanding which joke you didn't understand.

Try saying 'teat' aloud followed by the word 'owl'.

If that still doesn't work do it standing in the kitchen.

Steve Tilley said...

After doing the washing up do you dry the dishes? What do you use for that?
