Some years ago, a small town in Spain twinned with a similar town in Greece and the Greek Mayor visited the Spanish town. When he saw the palatial mansion belonging to the Spanish mayor he wondered how the Spaniard could afford such a house. The Spanish mayor told him 'You see that bridge over there ? The EEC gave us a grant to build a two-lane bridge, but by building a single lane bridge with traffic lights at either end, this house could be built. A few years later the Spanish mayor visited the Greek town and was amazed at the luxurious fittings of the Greek mayors house - gold taps, marble floor, .. stupendous. When asked how this could be afforded, the Greek mayor replied 'you see that bridge over there ? ' The Spaniard replied 'No'

This bloke thought his wife, Barbara, was losing her hearing, so one day he decided to test it. He quietly walked in the front door and stood 30 feet behind her. "Barbara," he said, "can you hear me?" There was no response, so he moved 20 feet behind her. Barbara," he said, "can you hear me?" Still no response. He advanced to ten feet and asked "Now can you hear me?" "Yes, dear," Barbara answered. "For the THIRD time, yes!"

At the end of November Liz and I took Oliver up to Aberdeen for a judo competition. Now at these type events spectators normally pay a couple of quid and you get a raffle ticket to get in and out of the hall. But no not at Aberdeen that would mean somebody buying a book of raffle tickets. In Aberdeen They stamp the back of your hand with an indelible Ink frank and it says PAID. It reminded me about the Aberdonian who wrapped up a packet of batteries for his son's Christmas. When the lad opened up the parcel there was a note along with the batteries which read "TOYS NOT INCLUDED" Anyway on the road home Liz started complaining about my driving.

My daughter, Yvonne got a telephone call from the headmistress at Oliver's School earlier in the week. Seemingly Oliver (my grandson) had told his teacher he couldn't do the Xmas pantomime as his judo class was on that night. As Miss Ashworth pleaded with Yvonne to get him to change his mind I decided to the afternoon matinee. Gosh what a sweet, melodic voice he has. I think it must run in the family genes. My father has a good singing voice his party piece being "The soor mulk cairt" My wife, Liz's father sung "I'll take you home again Kathleen" While her mother sung "Rose of Tralee" The problem is I was left me out of it, however I can tell jokes. When I asked Oliver what his favourite songs were he said "Price Tag" by Jessie Jay and "Rolling in the deep" by Adele.

gasps, "We have to stop! I forgot to bring birth control!" "No problem," he
replies, "I'll get my wife's diaphragm." After a few minutes of searching,

As they’re travelling along the road he say’s “This is a terrific car, real leather upholstery, veneered mahogany surround and look!!, at the instrumentation.” The driver asks “Haven’t you ever been in a Rolls Royce before?” “Oh yes” Replies the passenger. “But never in the front seat”

His pal studies it for a few moments and then say’s “Yes, but who took the picture?”
Muammar Gaddafi decides to bail out. As he is travelling across the desert his camel went lame. He came across a village and ordered the two leading tribesmen to bring their best camel to his tent. Neither wanted to give up they’re animal and both proclaimed that their camel’s were useless. “We’ll settle it with a race” said Muammar. “But sir” said one of Gaddafi's helpers “Neither man will let his camel go fast”. Yes they will” replied Gaddafi “let each man ride the other’s camel”

I lifted up the menu that had had been put through the door a few days earlier it read 27) Vegetarian Aromatic Crispy Duck (served with pancake, spring onion, cucumber & hoi sin sauce) = £5.60 I think the Chief must have been a bit Bird Brained.
The husband phones the doctor and tells him that his wife has swallowed a mouse. The doctor tells him to dangle a piece of cheese and he'll be there shortly. When the doctor arrived It's a sardine that's on the end of the string. When the doctor asked what was going the the husband informed him that the cat had jumped in after the mouse. Now, when I previously heard this joke it was a bit funnier. Right enough it wasn't the woman's mouth that the mouse jumped into.

This was printed a few years back in the Herald when Sarah Park (my granddaughter) left Ladywell Primary to go to Dalziel High.
THE end of the school year reminds John Park in Motherwell of when his granddaughter marked the end of her time at primary school by going out with her pals in a stretch limo. When the car arrived, the chauffeur produced a bottle in an ice bucket and poured her a drink into a champagne flute. John was dispatched to check what was being poured and confirmed it was lemonade. Nevertheless he returned and told his wife: "It's okay. He says he's got a special licence from the council to serve alcohol to 12-year-olds when they're in his car." His enjoyment in watching his wife fly down the path to berate the driver was, of course, short-lived.

He added that the hotel had a swimming pool, in-house entertainment and Wi-Fi. When she complained that she hadn't used any of these, the manager remarked that they were available and she could have. The woman took out her purse and paid him £50, saying that she was deducting £200 for him sleeping with her overnight. "I certainly did not" blurted the manager.

This cartoon came about one Saturday afternoon. We came out of the old Asda in Motherwell and as we drove past Watson Street I noticed this bloke walking down the road with a supermarket trolley. I said to myself 'there's something funny about this' I doodled about with it for half an hour and came up with this cartoon. It was published in two national newspapers netting me £80, not bad for
under an hours work.

Last Saturday we were up visiting my mother and father. As I drove down the street dad said "never mind "the auld wine" it's a bit rowdy in there, go to the 32 club. Honestly folks we walked into the bar and the "Heart of Midlothian Flute Band" were all around the pool table giving it laldy. Don't get me wrong they were pretty good but when it came to them singing the 'sash' the whole place erupted. Talk about a quiet pint on a Saturday afternoon this pub must have been as far away from that as you can get. Right enough, what do you expect in the quaint Lanarkshire village of Shotts.

We're just back from a week's holiday in Tenerife. It didn't start off very well. Despite having confirmation paperwork saying that our luggage was included Thomas Cook demanded £80 from us for two cases. I booked the holiday via a web link on Ken Smith of the Herald's diary web site. I reckon it's an internet scam and I don't think I'll get my money back. Later on in the day as we walked by the Veronicas area in Tenerife this bloke approached me like a long lost brother. He put his right hand over my shoulder, pulled me in tight while his left hand tried to take my wallet out my back trouser pocket. I got a hold of his wrist to stop him and at the same time got my elbow back enough to hit him a cracker of a punch right in the middle of his coupon. It was such a good punch I skinned two of my knuckles. It was worth it to see him running away like a scalded cat with the blood spewing out of his nose Liz said to me "I've never known you to do anything like that before" I replied "Nobody has ever tried to steal my wallet before"
I particularly liked some of the stickers you see on the racks in front of the shops. like "Wife and dog lost. Reward 100 Euros for return of dog" "Few women admit their age. Few men act theirs'" "I didn't really want a kitchen" said the fed up house wife "But it came with the house"
on the Saturday night we went out to an Irish pub called "The Hole in the wall" It's half way along the strip which is behind the Vulcano Hotel. The singer in there is a guy called Fergal Flatery. Half way through the night he announced that the next song was going to be ""Rivers of Babylon" But it's not me that's going to sing it. Welcome on stage Danniel O'Donnel. Liz was ecstatic"
One night we went into a pub across the the road from the Bouganville Playa Iberostar. This bloke came speeding along the pavement in a mobility vehicle. He stopped outside the bar strutted up to the bar and ordered a whisky and beer and sat at the table next to us. liz and I looked at him, then looked over at the invalid carriage. He replied "I know what you are thinking, but it's not the case. That's my wife's, I'm taking it along to the shop to get it up-graded" Later on there was quite a good Karaoke on. Now the name of the pub was the Pheasant Plucker. At the poolside the next morning Liz was telling the couple on the sun beds next to us about the night out. When Liz was asked the name of the pub she stuttered a little then replied "The Pleasant Fucker"
On the last night of the holiday we went to the Corner Bar on the strip to see Billy Porter. Now I'm not kidding you folks that guy is the best stand up comic I've ever heard. I was told he was very rude and crude but I didn't find that the case. Of course it may have been because his mother Cathy Porter, who sometimes sings with Margaret Purser in the Miners Welfare, along with his father and two older sisters were in the audience. When I spoke to Billy after his stint he unashamedly said that if he wasn't a willie woofter he would have no material, no act and no job.

It must be the only Subway shop in the country which is not painted on the outside in the company's corporate green. It's done in black instead. It's maybe an environmental thing?.

After inspecting the broken tarmac he took a indelible spray can from his bag. He would normally mark down the outline of the area to be removed. After he marked the first cross down the local lad who was working with him shouted "Stop, this is Larkhall you can't go round putting crosses all over the roads here. A dot will do fine" I remember a way back in the early 60's the first set of traffic lights got put up in Larkhall. The day after the lights were installed the sequence changed from red amber green to red amber blue. Yes, somebody had went out through the night and painted the green coloured lights blue. Yes, there's more as Jimmy Cricket would say. I remember the time when a thief broke into Jimmy Cricket's house and he lost everything. Well, Jimmy did keep saying "there's more" Nobody in Larkhall ever listens to Radio Clyde. They don't like the initials of the radio station.

I have just read a piece in the paper about Joan Rivers attending a charity dinner. Charles and Camilla who have adopted Joan as their court jester were also in the audience. Against all protocol Joan jumps to her feet to make an impromptu speech. "I just want to say" she rasps, raising her glass for a toast "This is for all you bitches in the room who married your husbands for their money" there was a stunned silence. But when the royal hosts burst out laughing so does everybody else. Joan reminds me so much of Bill Hicks one of my all time comedy greats. There are two stories that I all ways remember about Bill Hicks. His mother was friendly with Frank Sinatra's mother. Bill was seeking recognition at the time and his mother told Frank's mother about this and asked her to ask Frank to go to one of his shows. Bill was doing his stand up and Frank walked in. "Ah Frank, thanks for calling by. How did your singing lessons go to-day?" says Bill. There was an eerie silence and the two bodyguard standing on either side of Frank were waiting on the nod to pounce. After a moment or two Frank giggled and said "Very funny Bill" And everybody laughed. After they became friends they happened to be dinning in the same restaurant. Bill was with a new girlfriend who he was trying to impress. As he went to the boys room Bill went up to Frank and told him about the new girlfriend and asked him if he would call over to the table letting her know you were one of my friends. Sure enough later on Frank walks up to the table with his hand out saying "How's it going Bill?" "Frank, f***k off, can't you see I'm busy" was the reply. How he got away with it I'll never know. This routine has been used many times but this where it originated from.

I was at a pub friend's funeral the other day. The chapel was pretty full and I ended up sitting up the front behind the family. When George's daughter turned round she noticed the tears running down my cheeks. She then said "I didn't realise that you were that close to my dad" "It's not so much that dear" I said "When the priest was throwing the incense over the coffin it was drifting over here and going in my eyes" I passed Dick Hall later on in the day. Now I wouldn't say Dick is the village idiot but he's the nearest we've got to one. Anyway, he says to me "That's George away with the fairies now, isn't it?" When George first took unwell earlier on in the year; I was talking to him up in Weatherspoon's. He had just got out of hospital and was given a week's supply of steroids. He said to me "John, I feel like a seventeen year old again. When my wife woke up this morning and felt my hard on pressed against her arse she thought she was in bed with another bloke" When I asked him if he could spare a few tablets he said "No way"
It reminded me of the two old dears in the nursing home. One said to the other "If you don't come to my funeral Madge I won't be going to yours"

When I queried him about this he said "These two are for you to get in and this last one is for your wife to get out" Honestly folks we were walking around stopping at any interesting exhibits when this commissionaire chap came up to me and "Will you keep your wife moving sir" When I asked why he said "We're stocktaking" Back in the 60's I used to go to Blackpool quite a lot. The joke I can recall from then was:- Did you hear about the lady that went to Blackpool for a little sun? She ended coming back with one. boom! boom!

Another story I can recall about Ramsay Goldie was when he was walking to work one morning he found this dead fox lying at the side of the road. He took out his sheath knife and cut off it's tail. Now at that time we had a works manager called Sid Patten. Sid used to wear this three quarter length grey coat. Ramsay stapled the fox's tail to the back of Sid's grey coat and hid it from view on the coat rack. Well Sid walked about all morning with the foxes tail swaying about his rear end. It wasn't until later on in the day when I was out in the shop floor Sid said to me "Everybody seems to be looking at me and laughing" I then took him into the canteen and showed him in the full length mirror what they were laughing at. I always remember his exact words "That wee b*****d Goldie"
Well, I received this "e" mail about it.

Hi John Park,
Just visited your web site having come across it via google. Thanks for making my day, my dad Sid Patten, being the recipient of the prank inflicted on him by a certain Ramsay Goldie..... Sadly, my dad is no longer alive as he passed away back in 1991. However, it was really amusing and lovely to read this wee story about my dad, back in the day when he worked at Taskers Trailers and to come across that interesting blend of Glasgow humour, which I myself don't come across so much these days, being married to a southerner and living in the south of England. Well done and thankyou for creating such an amusing and fun web site with a slightly different and quirky take on promoting your business. Regards Margaret Dunsford Nice. Isn't it?
We were at Blackpool last weekend. John and Janice were with us and on the road down a warning buzzer came on and Janice asked what it was. I explained that it was to let you know that you were over the 70 mph speed limit. Liz piped in "Its maybe there in case the driver is blind and can't see the speedometer" As we walked along Central Drive on the Saturday afternoon we passed the Joke shop. Below the window in large letters it said 'IF YOU CAN'T TAKE A JOKE DON'T COME IN'. I said "you three stay here and I'll go in" On the return journey just after the Gretna turn off there was a large sign that said "Welcome to Scotland" I said "On the first leg of the trip there wasn't any Welcome to England sign. I wonder why that is?"

WALKING THE DOG A Woman was flying from Melbourne to Brisbane . Unexpectedly, the plane was diverted to Sydney along the way. The flight attendant explained that there would be a delay, and if the passengers wanted to get off the aircraft the plane would re-board in 50 minutes. Everybody got off the plane except one lady who was blind. A man had noticed her as he walked by and could tell the lady was blind because her Guide Dog lay quietly underneath the seats in front of her throughout the entire flight. He could also tell she had flown this very flight before because the pilot approached her, and calling her by name, said, 'Kathy, we are in Sydney for almost an hour. Would you like to get off and stretch your legs?' The blind lady
replied, 'No thanks, but maybe Buddy would like to stretch
his legs.' off the plane with a Guide dog! The pilot was even wearing sunglasses. People scattered. They not only

Today Friday I was up at Wishaw General. One of my thumb nails appears to have a cyst below it. After examining it the specialist a Dr. Evans said "In all 30 years as a doctor I've never seen anything like it. Do you mind if I bring in my colleagues to have a look at it?" Another four doctors trouped into the room. Each one examined it in turn saying things like amazing, incredible and astonishing. I felt like one of these freaks that user to go round with the circuses 100 years ago. After it was photographed and the nurse make an appointment for a miner operation the doctor said "If it goes away I still want you to turn up and I'll remove that mole from your neck and that little piece of lose skin from your brow" "What kind of Doctor are you?" I asked "I'm a cosmetic surgeon" he replied. "Can I bring my wife along with me as well?" I asked.
Last Monday night we were at an "Enable Scotland" charity night in the Cafe Manzil in Hamilton. Tam Cowan hosted it. Boy is he crude and rude? But the audience loved it and that's what it's all about. The best story was when he talked about having John McCririck on "OFF THE BALL" Tam said he had to take him to the canteen before the show. When Tam was in the lift with him there was a strong smell. It was like a mixture of stale body odour and horse shit. As they sat at the table with there rolls on tuna Carol Smillie came over and putting her plate of salad down she said she was going for a drink. After taking a bite of his roll John coughed and spluttered a chunk of tuna mixed with sweet corn landed in the middle Carol's salad. Tams punch line was "I haven't told Carol to this day" Tam announced that the raffle was a nominal £5 a head but feel free to put a bit extra in the envelope. Just after that as I passed the bar on the road to the toilet a bloke was asking for four fivers for a twenty pound note. The barman told him there wasn't any fivers or tenners for that matter in the till. Nice one.

The continuing story about Peter Tobin being Bible John reminds me about the time back in the early 70.s I worked in a fabrication shop In Cumbernauld. The shop floor prankster was Ramsay Goldie. Ramsay had been working away with a guy called Steven Wallace. Steven had casually said to Ramsay "God be with you my son" Ramsay made some excuse and went into one of the empty offices dialled 999 and said "I think the bloke working next to me is Bible John" Well the police were there in minutes. My office was on the road into the workshop and I can always remember Steven getting huckled into the police car still wearing his welders helmet and leather gloves. I'll never forget the look on his face and when he got dropped off four hours later he wasn't a happy bunny either. Another story I can recall about Ramsay was when he was walking to work one morning he found this dead fox lying at the side of the road. He took out his sheath knife and cut off it's tail. Now at that time we had a works manager called Sid Patten. Sid used to wear this three quarter length grey coat. Ramsay stapled the foxes tail to the back of Sid's grey coat and hid it from view on the coat rack. Well Sid walked about all morning with the foxes tail swaying about his rear end. It wasn't until later on in the day when I was out in the shop floor Sid said to me "Everybody seems to be looking at me and laughing" I then took him into the canteen and showed him in the full length mirror what they were laughing at. I always remember his exact words "That wee b*****d Goldie" In the same work place we had a guy who was given the nick name "Hip Hip" His real name was Hugh Rae.
Did you see the bit in the paper about Alan Cameron getting 25 years for killing his girlfriend.

I just read a bit in the paper about a farmer in the Aberdeen area. He got up one morning and there were about a dozen gypsy caravans in one of his fields. Seemingly because of government legislation regarding location of council sites, neither the land owner, the council nor the police can force them to move on. You couldn't make it up. It reminds me of one of Richard Littlejohn's (Daily Mail) stories. The old lady telephones the police and tells them that gypsy caravans have moved into a field next to her and they're starting to cause havoc. "I'm sorry" says the desk sergeant "Because of the non urgency of the matter and our limited resources it'll be two days before we can get somebody to call on you" Fifteen minutes later she calls the police station again "It's the old lady calling about the gypsy's. Just to let you know my husband has filled his pockets with cartridges and walking towards them with his 12 bore shotgun" Within four minutes the place was surrounded by 'siren howling' police cars.
Pat and Mick are working at the local sawmill. Mick slips and his arm is
severed by a bench saw.
Paddy puts the arm in a plastic bag and rushes it and Mick to the local
hospital.
Next day, Paddy goes to the hospital and asks about Mick. The nurse says, 'he's in Rehab exercising'. Paddy couldn't believe it, but yes Mick was exercising his re-attached arm. A couple of days go by, and Mick is back at work and once again slips and severs his leg on another bloody big saw. Paddy dutifully puts the limb in a plastic bag and rushes it and Mick to hospital.
The Next day he asks the nurse how he is. The nurse replies, 'He's out in
the Rehab again exercising'. And sure
Enough, Mick was doing serious work on a treadmill. Very soon Mick comes back to work. But within a couple of days he has another accident and this time severs his head. Wearily Paddy puts his head in a bag and transports it and it and Mick back to the hospital. Next day when he goes the nurse breaks down and cries and says, 'He's dead.' Paddy is shocked. 'I guess that saw finally did him in eh?' 'No', says the nurse, 'Someone put his head in a plastic bag and He suffocated'.
After a bad car accident this bloke has serious facial injuries. The plastic surgeon assures the bloke that by slicing a section of his buttocks and grafting it into the side of his face it’ll be hardly noticeable. It works out a treat. At the Bloke’s final check up he is given the bill for £10,000. He writes a cheque out and gives it to the surgeon. After looking at the piece of paper the surgeon says “this cheque’s for £12,000” “The extra is to express my gratitude” replies the bloke “I get immeasurable pleasure every time my mother in gives me a peck on the cheek”
A monkey goes up to a gorilla and asks if he has a can-opener. The gorilla replies "You don't need a can-opener for bananas" "I know" said the monkey "It's for the custard"
Just after we got married we stayed in Carnbroe on the outskirts of Coatbridge. The nearest pub was Macks bar. I always remember being in there one night when this bloke came up to me and said "Your name is John Park and you were in the same class as me at Newmains Primary school" "mmm" I said "I can't remember you" "My name is John Kane" "Ah" I said "I remember you now. On my first day at school my first words to you were "You've got your wellingtons on the wrong feet"
As we sat having our breakfast the other morning there was a flapping noise came falling down the chimney. Then there was squawking and flapping coming from behind our gas fire. So rather than mess up anything inside the room I took a brick out of the outside gable wall. When I had broken through into the old fire place I stood back and sure enough a birds head popped out for a look about. Liz came up and said "What kind of bird is that?"

I watched the Jeremy Kyle Show the other morning. Honestly folks, that program helps groups of people who are too stupid to realise that their problems are being exploited in the name of entertainment.
Weekly Rant w/e 18-06-2010
I particularly liked the Nicolas Parsons story through the week. In order to dissuade him from going into Show Business his father sent him to a Clydeside Shipyard to work as an engineering apprentice. He was now in one of the best comedy environments in the country. After a short time he was nick named "the wee comic" and left to work in the theatre.
Our very first package holiday was to Corfu. Liz cut her foot while on the beach. When I asked a local chap where the medical centre was he told me to look for a green cross. When we found it there was a sign up saying "English speaking doctor" "What a good idea I thought. They should try that back home"
When I was walking down Merry Street last week-end a couple of American tourists stopped me and asked where they could get something to eat. I replied "At the bottom of the road Weatherspoon's is on the right or go back up the street and The Railway Tavern in on the other side of the road" "Where's the best place to go to?" she asked. "Let me put it to you this way" I replied "Whichever one of the two you go to you'll wish you had went to the other one" go to address below to view in the Herald http://www.heraldscotland.com/comment/ken-smiths-diary/park-life-the-diary-18-june-2010-1.1035624
That reminded me of a time about ten years ago. I had just come out Motherwell library and there were two Australian Tourists standing. Pointing over the road the bloke said to me "How is it that the four faces of the town clock are all at different times?" "Well" I said "If they were all at the same time we wouldn't need the four faces. Would we?"
A former Tory M.P. giving advice to new female M.P.'s "The occupational hazards are the 3A's - Arrogance, alcoholism and adultery" and who else could it be giving the advice but Edwina Currie.

A lady walked into a drug store and told the pharmacist she needed some cyanide. The pharmacist said, "Why in the world do you need cyanide?" The lady then explained she needed it to poison her husband. The pharmacist's eyes got big and he said, "Lord, have mercy -- I can't give you cyanide to kill your husband! That's against the law! I'll lose my license, they'll throw both of us in jail and all kinds of bad things will happen! Absolutely not, you can NOT have any cyanide!" The lady reached into her purse and pulled out a picture of her husband in bed with the pharmacist's wife. The pharmacist looked at the picture and replied, "Well, now. You didn't tell me you had a prescription...
Did you read in the paper the other week about the Romanian stowaway who hid in the undercarriage area of a boeing 747 They reckon he had twice as much leg room as the average Ryanair budget airline passenger.
And wasn't it terrible to hear about the two young twin sisters who were mauled by the fox. Although it's unusual it's not the first time that type of thing has happened. Around the year 1750 near the Gowkthrapple area but down towards the Clyde a three year old was attacked by two foxes. It reminds me of the time about five years after we were married I was in the garden hoeing between my rows of vegetables. When I looked down to the rear of the house there was a fox sniffing around the open back door. I marched down towards it. As there was nowhere else to go the fox ran in the back door. Liz was in the kitchen making the tatties and mince when the fox joined her. She let out an almighty scream and the fox bolted between my open legs as I stood in the doorway. I consoled Liz by saying "Take it as a compliment dear. Your cooking must be getting better"

A farmer was ploughing a field when he found a body, so he phoned the museum and said "I've just found the body of a 4,000 year old man who died of a sever heart attack" "Hold on" said the Museum curator "How could you possible know that? We haven't even examined the body" "Oh" replied the farmer "I forgot to tell you. He had a betting slip in his pocket and written on it were the words All my worldly assets on Golliath"
On Wednesday night we were in Glasgow. First we went to "the chippy doon the lane" and had a delicious sit in fish supper and then went to Tiger Tiger's for the regional finals of the Sun's stand up comic competition. Now, they had 115 entries and this was the best eight. I didn't get through. All the entrants had lots of experience raging from Ross Craig (Dunfermline) 13 years down to Paul Collins (Glasgow) 1 year. Glasgow based Chris Henry was probably favourite. However the winner was Mikey Adams (Glasgow) The joke that stuck in my mind from him was when he said "I've got a pal who will not use a condom. His nick name is The interior decorator" All the entries had good delivery style but Mikay's material had an edge to it. When I went and congratulated him I enquired about his material. He said he didn't know what he was going to do until he went on stage. I watched some of his video clips and that's not strictly true. He has about six subjects that he knows he can get laughs with. When he goes on stage he has some banter with the audience and depending on the feed back he gets he'll hone in on a particular subject matter. The ones I can recall were students, politics, call centres, police, doctors & hospitals and such like. Liz and I stayed the night in this "Faulty Towers" type place in Renfrew street. When Liz came out of the shower in the morning her hair was bone dry. I queried this with her she pointed round about the room and said "There's no hair drier here. I had to put an Asda carrier bag over my head" It reminded me about the two blokes in the pub one night arguing about who had the ugliest wife. The first bloke went into his wallet and took a photo of his wife out. Handed it to his pal he said "have a look at that" "Drink up" said the second bloke "I'm taking you home to show you mine in the flesh" When they went into the living the bloke moved some furniture, rolled the carpet up, lifted the hatch and shouted down "Elsie come up here" "Will I put the paper bag over my head?" asked Elsie. "No" replied the bloke "I don't want to s**g you. I only want to show you to my pal"
"Men are like car alarms" Says the lady in the pub. "They make a lot of noise that no one listens to"
"Women are like a good book" says the bloke in the pub "Some are a mystery. Some are thrillers. My wife is a horror"
"My wife has got the face of a saint" says the second bloke in the pub "Yes, a Saint Bernard"
This lady went to the doctors beaten black and blue. When asked by the doctor what happened she replied "Every time my husband comes in from the pub he beats me into pulp" "I've got the solution to that" said the doc. "Every time your hubby comes home drunk take a mouth full of luke warm tea and swish it around your mouth until he goes to bed" Two weeks later she visits the doctor looking fresh and reborn. After complimenting her the doctor said "see how much it helps when you keep your mouth shut"
A man turns to his wife and says "I must admit you've brought religion into my life" Wife replies "Really dear is that because of our spiritual connection?" "No, not really" replied the husband "It's just that I didn't believe in hell until I married you"

His Name is Rolf!
Jamie asked his dad to explain the difference between irritation,
aggravation, and frustration.
His father picked up the phone and dialed a number at random.
When the phone was answered,
he asked,
"Can I speak to Rolf, please?"
"No! There's no one named Rolf here," replies the person who
answered the phone.
The father hung up. "That, my boy, is irritation."
He picked up the phone again, dialled the same number, then asked
for Rolf a second time. "No, there's no one here called Rolf.
Go away. If you call again I'm calling the cops," the person
said.
The father hung up and said, "That's aggravation."
"Then what's frustration?" asked Jamie. The father picked up the
phone and dialled the same number a third time.
"Hello, this is Rolf. Have I received any phone calls?"

Strathclyde NHS are advertising for a 'Hair Removal Specialist -------- Transgender Services' or G.B.B. Gender Bender Barber for short. 'Experience of working with transgender clients is essential' Salary £21,798 per annum. You couldn't make it up.
It reminds me of this one. A bloke goes into the Job Centre in Newcastle and sees a card advertising for a Gynaecologist's assistant. Interested, he goes to learn more. "Can you give me some more details about this?" he asks the guy behind the desk. The Job Centre guy sifts through his files and replies, "Uh - yes I've had quite a few enquiries about this job. The job entails you getting patients ready for the gynaecologist. You have to help them out of their underwear, lie them down and wash their nether regions, then apply shaving foam and shave off all their pubic hair then rub in soothing oils so they're ready for the gynaecologist's examination. There's an annual salary of £45,000 but I'm afraid you'll have to travel to Oxford." "Oh, why - is that where the job's based?" "No, that's where the end of the queue is."
As our house is terribly for finding a pen so I snaffled a hand full from one betting shops up the street. I put a dozen in each of the appropriate jars in the kitchen and in my office. When Liz noticed them she said "That's a good idea where did you buy them?" When I told her they came from the bookies she had an annie roony saying "get these bloody pens oot of this hoose" Another case of the illogical female mind.
Last Sunday Liz handed me £6.50 and said when you go up the street get one of those Indian meals for two out of ASDA. When I took it into the house she said "The price tag is missing" Well, I couldn't very well tell her that they were doing them on "special" at half dough, could I?

I went into the Railway Tavern (just along from Motherwell Cross) on Monday. After ordering a pint of cider I said to the barmen "When I was in here yesterday I left a carrier bag just there" Pointing to the bottom of the bar. "What was in it?" asked the barman. When I told him it was a packet of dog biscuits he said "You've no chance of getting them back. One of the old codgers will have taken them home and ate them"
We watched "Live at the Apollo" last Saturday night. It was hosted by Rob Brydon (the Welsh guy) He was okay. Sarah Millican was the main guest. She's a funny lady. Jason Byrne wasn't my cup of tea.
"Frank Skinner Opinionated" was very good of course he is one of my favourite comics. We've got tickets for his Glasgow gig BBC2 this Friday night. When we were going into Glasgow on Thursday night (that's when the show was filmed) on the train I picked up the Metro paper. As I glanced through the paper I got to the txt section I said to Liz "Listen to this text" "Allison, I know I'm a pain in the arse sometimes, but I love you so much - you are my loopy wife" Dave Motherwell. Liz said "That's not the Allison and Dave we know, Is it?" I said "I think so after all she does come from Larkhall" We got to the the BBC Studios about five to six our tickets said that the doors would open a six o'clock. There were so many people queuing up outside they had opened the doors at five o'clock and the place filled up immediately. We ended up at Slumdogs at the top of Sauchiehal Street. It's the first time I've been in a restaurant without a menu. They just planked food down in front of you and said "enjoy". The last time I can remember having no choice in my food was the School dinner halls in the 1950's. However the Indian food was a treat and after the meal there was a compere and two stand ups on. Seemingly Charan Gill who owns the place sometimes does the emceeing.

The worm in the water swims around happily. But other worm whisky is soon dead. "What does that tell you?" asks the doc. "If you drink whisky you won't get worms" answered the "soon to become alky" I enclose this so that John (junior) can pull his dad's leg.

When I lifted the paper last Thursday and saw the William Hill odds of 33/1 for Labour to win I new it was the end for them. Gordon Brown took very decisive measures when the banks went belly up, and apart from the fact that the country is heavily in debt (with the right government it is possible to work this off) his actions worked. He knows what he's doing in that department. He is a lot more experienced than David Cameron in the financial side of things and that's what the country needs over the next few years. But the English don't seem to realise this. Gordon's persona leaves a bit to be desired but the real reason he's been kicked out is not because of that It's because he's a Scot. What the English seem to forget is that the first Labour P.M. (1924) was a Scotsman called Ramsay McDonald. It's obvious to anybody with a bit of savvy "David Cameron couldn't lace Gordon Brown's boots"

I was up at the Doctor's earlier in the week for my three month check up. She brought out the scales and after I stood on them she said "You're weight's gone up a bit.

I said "whatever is put down in front of me" She said "I want you to cut out cheese, butter, sausages and all fatty meat" "do you take sugar in you tee" she continued. When I told her I did she said "I want you cut that out altogether and use sweetex instead. Go into ASDA, but don't go to the shopping area, go to the cafe and you'll see where the self service drinks are, there's two large bowls of sweetex and you can help yourself" I said to my self "I don't think she's got shares in Wal-Mart" Anyway, that's the type of nurse I like.

When I looked over he was saying "Thanks, have a good day, ta etc. " The thing was the cheeky so and so had ear plugs in.
Dick Advocaat being back in Glasgow the other week reminded me of the time when I actually met him. I worked for a company whose headquarters' were in Leon in France. I got a phone call one afternoon asking if I could pick up an engineer at the airport, take him to view a broken down vehicle and then back to the airport for a late afternoon flight home. When we were driving back I told him we were too early for his return flight and asked him if there was anything he would like to do. He said he was a loyal Rangers fan and said he would love to visit Ibrox. I told him that I couldn't promise him anything but we'll pop in and ask. When we got to the front entrance I asked the security guy If there was any chance of us having a quick look around he said he would have to go and see his boss. The boss man came out said he wasn't supposed to but under the circumstances he would give us a quick tour. My colleague was delighted. On the road out we stood on the top steps and thanked the guy. However Dick Advocaat was approaching us from his car. Now this new colleague of mine was about 6' 4" dark skinned and had the physic of an athlete. Dick barged over looked into his face and said "Should I know you?" When I explained that he was a French fan Dick wasn't interested and gave us a body swerve. However, while we were stood there a van driver from the company I worked for just happened to be driving by. Next morning the parts driver sneaked into my office and asked me "Are you a secret scout for Rangers" I touched the side of my nose and said "Mum's the word" And do you know, to this day Andy Mitchell is none the wiser.
When in 1978 we moved from Coatbridge to Motherwell out next door neighbour was Mrs. Thompson. Mrs Thompson had a great sense of humour. I recall accidentally listening to her having a conversation with a bloke who was going to prune her apple trees. He was telling her that he would have increase his prices from £2 to £2.5 a tree. She replied "I'll tell you what to do. Go and give each one of them £2 worth of pruning each. As the years passed she ended up in the Netherton Nursing home. Liz and I used to visit her every fortnight. I recall one of the times we were up she said to me "John I've got a story to tell you about three old dears I was listening to this afternoon in the dayroom. The first old lady said When I die I want my ashes spread in the Duches Park. That's where me and my late hubby did our courting before the war. The second old lady said I want my ashes spread in the Strathclyde Park around the memorial cairn for Bothwellhaugh. That's where me and my man had our first but and ben. I recall having great times there. The third old lady said I want my ashes spread in Asda's car park. "Asda's car park" the two other two said in a perplexed unison. "Yes" the third lady replied "That way I can be sure my daughter will visit me every week"

Two elderly
couples are enjoying a friendly conversation when one of the men turns to
the other. “Arthur, I’ve been meaning to ask you,” says the pensioner.
“How’s your course at the memory clinic going?” “Outstanding,” replies
Arthur. “They teach us all the latest psychological techniques:
visualisation, association and so on. It’s made a huge difference for me.”
“That’s great,” says his mate. “What was the name of the clinic again?”

Q:- What do you get if you cross a politician and an owl? A:- Somebody who fiddles their expenses and doesn't give a hoot.
And on that subject
The word politics is derived from two words. "Poly" meaning many, and the word "Tics" meaning blood sucking creatures.

A priest walked into a barber shop After he got his haircut, he asked how much it would be. The barber said, "No charge. I consider it a service to the Lord." The next morning, the barber came to work and there were 12 prayer books and a thank you note from the priest in front of the door. Later that day, a police officer came in and got his hair cut. He then asked how much it The barber said, "No charge. I consider it a service to the community." The next morning, he came to work and there were a dozen donuts and a thank you note from the police officer. Then, a M.P. came in and got a haircut. When he was done he asked how much it was. The barber said, "No charge. I consider it a service to the country." The next morning, the barber came to work and there were 12 M.P.’s in front of the door.
Ryanair have introduced half-price fare for women accompanying their husbands on business trips. Expecting valuable testimonials, the airline wrote to all the wives who'd used the special rate, asking them if they had enjoyed the trip. Letters are still pouring in asking "What trip?"

Last Saturday night we went over to Bellshill for a night of stand up comedy. The Emcee was Billy Kirkwood the three turns were Garry Little, Somebody Mack (No, not Lee Mack. This was a woodwork teacher from Airdrie instead.) and John Gillick. It was held in the Bellshill Cultural Centre. Now if the rubbish that came out their mouths was cultural then I don't know what. No, I 'm only joking. They weren't too bad at all. A couple of the jokes that I can recall were. The reason old men use Viagra is not that they're impotent, It's that old women are so very ugly. I'VE got a friend who told me that her new boyfriend looked like one of the Proclaimers. I said he can't. He either looks like both of them or neither of them.
That reminded me about the bloke that looked out his front living room window then turned round and said to his wife "Here's you're identical twin sister coming and you know I can't stand the sight of her"

He immediately started asking her out when they got home. Within a couple of weeks, Ed had taken Dorothy to dance clubs, restaurants, concerts, movies, and museums. Ed became convinced that Dorothy was indeed his soul mate and true love. Every date seemed better than the last. On the one-month anniversary of their first dinner on the cruise ship, Ed took Dorothy to a fine restaurant. While having cocktails and waiting for their salad, Ed said, "I guess you can tell I'm very much in love with you. I'd like a little serious talk before our relationship continues to the next stage. So, before I get a box out of my jacket and ask you a life changing question, it's only fair to warn you, I'm a total golf nut. I play golf, I read about golf, I watch golf on TV. In short, I eat, sleep, and breathe golf. If that's going to be a problem, for us, you'd better say so now!" Dorothy took a deep breath and responded, "Ed, that certainly won't be a problem. I love you as you are and I love golf too; but, since we're being totally honest with each other, you need to know that for the last five years I've been a hooker." "Oh wow! I see," Ed replied. He looked down at the table, was quiet for a moment, deep in serious thought then he added, "You know, it's probably because you're not keeping your wrists straight when you hit the ball."

I haven't had any sales calls as yet but it's certainly a step in the right direction. For all the years I was with Blueyonder and the best I got was on page six that was around position 65. I think it's something to do with the speed of the web host's servers. I went into Homebase the other afternoon and said to one of the assistants. "Can you tell If you have any tomato plants in yet? Wait a minute" he said "I'll go and ask the guy that knows everything" He returned a few moments later and said "You're not going to believe this but see the guy that knows everything he doesn't know" Honestly folks you couldn't make it up. I then said to the lad "Look you're going up by the garden area have a look in and if there's tomato plans there give me the thumbs up and if not make it the thumbs down" "AH" he said "there's a problem there I don't know what a tomato plant looks like" I was driving through Motherwell cross the other morning around ten to nine.

I see Frankie Boyle is on Channel 4 on Sunday evening at 10.00pm. I am sure this is the same tour he was on when I saw his first night at the Kings. It will be interesting to see how his act has changed from his inaugural night or what the T.V. cut out of it.
"Apparently the dust cloud closing Glasgow Airport had nothing to do with a volcano,” said the load mouth in the pub “It was just Celtic’s trophy room being cleaned out".
Watched Celebrity Roasts which was recently on Channel 4. Bruce Forsyth and Chris Tarrant came over reasonably well But Sharon Osbourne despite getting slagged stupid ie Jimmy Carr said "This is not the real Sharon Osbourne the real Sharon Osbourne is in a black bin bag behind the "cut and tuck" clinic" Sharon wasn't able to retaliate at all. However the Queen of them all was Joan Rivers on the American version of the show. Joan started off by walloping Witney Cummings who was hosting the show. She then worked through all the roasters leaving them in tatters. Basically telling them that they were all shite and that she was the best and that she was going to be around for a long time yet. Brilliant !!!
"I think my cat's on drugs" says the bloke in the pub "When I asked Tiddles what she wanted for dinner she said meow, meow"
Liz and I were in the garden last weekend. I was in the greenhouse preparing things before planting my tomatoes. Liz was gathering up the dog shit from the back green. I asked her to bring the carrier bag of shit over and I would dig it into the soil before I plant the tomatoes. "No way" said Liz "If you think I'm going to eat tomatoes growing on that you're up a gum tree" The incomprehensible mind of the female species, as if the tomatoes would taste of shit.

I was at Bellshill baths three times last week and clocked up 6000 metres yes, about 3.1/2 miles. So I thought I would tell you a swimming joke. An English cat who was called Onetwothree and a French cat called Undeuxtrois had a swim race across the channel. The Onetwothree cat won, the Undeuxtrois cat sank.
There's an elderly man and woman sitting in the sunroom of a retirement home. The old man says to the woman, "For five dollars, I'll have sex with you on that rocking chair over there. For ten dollars, I'll have sex with you on that couch. But for twenty dollars, I'll take you to my room, light a few candles and give you a romantic evening of passion you'll never forget." The woman considers it a moment and then, after fishing through her purse, produces a twenty dollar bill. The man says, "So, you want the romantic night in my room, eh?" The woman replies, "No, I want it four times in the rocker."
Best blonde joke of the week This blonde and her hubby stay in this house next to a railway line. They have a lot of trouble getting to sleep at night because of the noise and vibrations from passing trains. After complaining to British Rail she gets a visit from one of their inspectors. She takes him up to the bedroom then says to him "There's a train due in a few minutes. Lie on the bed with me and you'll experience it first hand" Just at that moment he husband came into the house and made beeline for the bedroom. When he opened the bedroom door he said "What's going on here?" "You're not going to believe this Dear?" replied the blonde "But we're waiting on a train coming"

We watched Channel 4's Comedy Gala on Monday Night. It was reasonably good entertainment. Alex Reid and Jordan introduced Michael McIntyre. When Michael came on stage he said "A lot of people don't know this but Alex has a middle name. It's "Can't". I think It's the first time I've laughed at Michael McIntyre. Next program on C4 was Frank Skinner. He is back on the stand up circuit after a ten year break. He was really good. Now the next program on was "The World's Most offensive Joke" I couldn't keep my eyes open so I didn't see the end of it. However I do recall watching some old footage of Les Dawson and Bernard Manning. Les Dawson being the king of mother-in-law jokes reminded me of this one.
A wife says to her husband "My mother says I should never have married you. According to her you're effeminate" "No" replied the husband "Compared with her I am effeminate"
I tried to google "The World's Most Offensive Joke" but nothing positive came up. Normally this type of thing is about female members of the Royal Family, famines, the Pope, hostages or mass death causing tragedies. Of course, It could be that I already know it. I remember Billy Connelly getting into trouble for saying something like "Why don't the terrorists just get on with it and cut Kenneth Bigley's head off" Then there's this one. What do you get if you cross the Atlantic Ocean with a French Airbus? About half way.

It was our wedding anniversary last week end (No, it wasn't on the 1st of April) I can vividly remember me proposing to Liz back in the early 70's. We were down the White Walk in my battered up mini van. It was a mild summers night, very romantic, I can remember my exact words of proposal "You're f***ing what?" And when we went on our honeymoon we went to Drumnadochit. It's on the North shore of Loch Ness just before Urquhart Castle. I got out the bed around 2am looked out the window on to Loch Ness and said to Liz "It's a rare night for the monster" Liz replied "If you take that out again I'm going hame to my mammy" That was a wishful thinking joke.
Billy Kerr sent me an "e" mail to say my weekly rant stuff had lost it's sparkle and wasn't that funny any more. "Auch well" I said to myself I now know how Jim Bowen feels.
When I picked Oliver (my grandson) up from school the other day he said to me "Papa If I was given just one wish In the whole wide world it would be for Moaning Myrtle to stop her moaning" Now, that's our nick name for Liz. Yes, we call her Moaning Myrtle from the Harry Potter books. It's just as well you can have a joke about things and it's also just as well Liz doesn't read this.
Moaning Myrtle, was a muggle-born witch who attended Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry and was sorted into Ravenclaw house. She was killed in 1943 by Slytherin's Basilisk, under Tom Riddle's orders. Now, she is a ghost who haunts the second floor girl's bathroom (making rattling pipe noises) at Hogwarts.

A blonde was waiting at the airport to meet her sister who had been in New Zealand for the last 30 years. Her friend asked her if she would recognize her. "I doubt it. 30 years is a long time" replied the blonde. Her friend replied "Will she recognize you?" "of course she will" Replied the blonde "You see, I haven't been away"

Last Saturday night liz was doing a bit of spring cleaning and was clearing out our cocktail cabinet. There was a Glenfidich bottle with two half's in it and a Chivas Regal bottle with three measures in it. Liz said to me "Are you going to drink that whisky so I can toss these bottles?" Now I could not count the number of times Liz has told me not to have a drink but this is the first time in thirty nine years of marriage she has told me to have a drink. Do you think she's gave in at last? Anyway I sat with my glasses of whisky and watched The Johnny Cash Biopic "Walk the Line". It was very pleasant.
Have you heard about the dumb blonde who thought Johnny Cash was money for the condom machine.
Last Friday night I watched that "Comedy Rocks" program. It was pretty good. Jason Manford, John Bishop, Paul Zerdin and Joe Brand were the first acts on. But to put Joe Pasquale with his Tommy Cooper type props as the main act was shite. He should know there was only one Tommy Cooper and they'll never be another one.
"I'm glad we put the clocks forward last weekend" says the bloke in the pub "It means that the clock in my mobile phone and car are now at the right time"

Tam Cowan asked for funeral funnies in his paper column this week. It brought these to mind.
The seventeen year old lad hated going to family weddings ... all of his aunts and the grandmotherly types used to come up to him, poke him in the ribs, cackle, and tell him, "You're next." ... At the next wedding none of his relatives did this. His mother thought this strange so she approached him and asked why the kidding had stopped. He replied “at the family funeral we were at last week I said 'You're next' to each of them”
And a subtle one
This lady has a fancy man. Her husband doesn’t mind as it’s an open relationship. Unfortunately she passed away. At the funeral the fancy man is besot with grief. The husband feeling sorry for him puts his hands on his shoulders in a consoling way and says “Don’t fret they’ll always be somebody else. After all I’m definitely getting married again.

van, and proceeded to back out into a torrential downpour.. The wind was

discovered that the weather would be

back into the house, quietly undressed, and slipped back into bed. I cuddled

When I was over in the club on Sunday afternoon John Preston my brother-in-law got up to go home at the his usual time of around 4.30. Jackie Barrie said to him "it's that time again. The tatties will be nearly ready" "not today" replied John "My laddie David gave Janice a £60 voucher for the Moorings Hotel as a Mothers day present. So we're eating out" "£60" says Tam Ross "You'll never eat and drink all that. Do you want us to come up and help you use up the bar tab" "That won't be necessary" Replied John "My Janice "he always calls his wife MY JANICE as if he owns her" was at the moorings this morning and changed the £60 voucher to two £25 and a £10 one" Janice certainly likes to be one step ahead as far as saving money is concerned.

Our freezer was accidentally turned off last weekend. The Joints of meat had just about thawed out so Liz decided to cook all and use it up over the next few days. There was too much for us so Sammantha, Sarah's dog got really well fed for a few days. A day after the meat was finished we came in from ASDA and Sammantha was lying in her basket chewing on something. When I took a closer look there was a mouse's tail protruding from her mouth. Yes, sirloin steaks one day and a dead decaying mouse the next. Liz was so livid she put her in the dog house.
I'm in the process of changing from Virgin to BT and it's a true saying you're better with the devil you know than the devil you don't know. This one really takes the biscuit. A BT call centre guy called me up on my mobile and said "How do you expect us to help you If we can't get through to you on the phone? I said "Wait a f***ing minute. My line has been checked out my BT and it's okay and I've been receiving calls from other people. Anyway you work for BT a national phone company and you are complaining to ME about a fault on your phone line" "Oh" says he "I never thought about it that way" I said "You just don't think. Period. Go and get a reality check" You couldn't make it up.
We were at the Kings on Tuesday night to see Frankie Boyle. The warm up was Craig Campbell a Canadian stand up comic. Sort of Billy Connelly type of stuff. Not bad. Frankie doesn't have any inhibitions. What he thinks just seems to roll of the tip of his tongue. But he wasn't as bad as Tam Cowan. Tam was doing a gig down in Kilwinning where he planted a stooge Priest in the Audience and ended up with the final punch line "All priests are Paedophiles anyway" Woh, Silence. Local police have charged Tam with "Breach of the Priest" The only stuff I didn't like in Frankie's act was him referring to child porn. He picked on and lambasted some of the younger people in the front rows. If you buy front row tickets that's what you can expect. We were in the upper circle. Liz looked around and whispered to me "I'm embarrassed we must be the oldest folk here" I said "No we're not look at that chap over there" pointing to the commissionaire at the main exit. We got home in time to see the second half of the Des McLean show. What a coup getting on prime time telly. When I saw the show in the telly bit of the paper on Tuesday morning I recalled telephoning for tickets after seeing a Pavillion advert. To cut a long story short I ended up at the bank to enquire if any ticket money had been drawn from my account. As the teller lady scrolled through the transactions she said "Isn't it amazing how one can get a picture of somebody's life style from their bank statements. For example I would like to be married to somebody like you. Look at how many times you are in ASDA buying bits and pieces of messages". I didn't want to disillusion her so I didn't tell her that it was twice weekly carry outs. I think the Pavillion dates were cancelled and moved to the SECC I didn't fancy Des's Billy Connelly impersonations. That stuff is well played out. His ten to fifteen minute ending was brilliant but the bit before that was just kinda average. The live audience seemed to like it though.

Did you see the bit in the paper about Buckfast tonic wine grossly out-selling all it's competitors and they don't spend one brown penny on advertising. It has been mentioned in 6000 criminal reports over the last few years. Isn't it peculiar how the cleverest marketing scenarios are never planned. They just occur.
We watched Alan Carr's "The Chatty Man" last night. Frankie Boyle was on the show. He's just back from a six week Caribbean Cruise. He was totally outrageous. I've never seen Alan Carr so embarrassed than he was last night. We are going to see Frankie Boyle on Tuesday night so I suppose that will be a taste of what we can expect.
I've just collected my grandson Oliver from school. When we were walking along our runway towards the back door he started kicking the chips on to the path. When I told him to stop it he said "Gran gives a fiver a week to brush the chips off the slabs"
"I was married for three months and I didn't know my husband drank". Says the lady in the pub. "until one night he came home sober...."
Watched the new comedy show Burnistoun on Monday night. It was the second episode. Although it got a reasonable write up, It didn't tick any boxes for me.
"My wife put a mud pack of her face the other day". Says the bloke in the pub. "It really improved her complexion and looks. Then it all cracked and fell off".
A single spelling mistake that caused a divorce. A bloke went to Amsterdam and sent a text message to his wife. "Having the most amazing and wonderful time. Wish you were her"
We watched a Jim Davidson Video the other night. He was performing to troops over in Iraq. Boy, was he crude. He talks about the time he lumbered an older bird. She agrees to take him home for a bit of "you know what" As they're going in the front door the 55 year old says "Do you fancy some mother daughter action" "Oh yes please" said Jim. She hollers up the stair "Mother, are you still up"
Reminds me of this one. What was it Jim said? "Next time I decide to set up home I'm find somebody I don't like and give them half my house"
Wife to husband :- Why do you always carry my photo in your wallet? Hubby :- When there’s a problem, no matter how impossible, I look at your picture and the problem disappears. Wife :- Is that because you see me as powerful and miraculous for you. Hubby :- You’ve got to be joking! I look at your picture and ask myself “what other problem can be greater than this one?”
Every time this bloke has an argument with his wife he goes into the spare room and watches his wedding video backwards. He particulary likes the bit where he takes the wedding ring off her finger, walks back down the aisle, gets into his car and drives off.
A couple are talking in this bar. When he asked what her name was she replied "Carman" "What's the significance in that" he said. She replied "It's because I like cars and men" When she asked for his name he replied "B.J. Titsengolf".
The bloke declared: “A friend of mine proposed to his girlfriend on St Paddy’s Day, but sneakily gave her a ring with a fake diamond. She found out and called him a cheapskate. But he told her, ‘It’s in honour of St Patrick’s Day – that’s why I gave you a sham rock.”
Did you see the bit in the paper the other day where it said three in five women fake orgasms. It reminds me of this one.
Two blondes are having a chinwag when one said to the other "I'm off men for life. They lie, they cheat and they're tight fisted. The next time I want sex I'm going to use my vibrator" "What will you do when the batteries go flat?" asks the second blonde "I'll just fake an orgasm. The same as I used to do with my boyfriend"
Did you hear about the bloke who thought he was the best lover in the country until he discovered his girlfriend had asthma.

A man and his wife walk into a
hotel, a pretty blonde taps the bloke on the shoulder and
says: “Hello, darling, what are you doing here?”
The bloke quickly ushers his wife into a lift. Inside she demands: “Who was
that woman?” “Don’t you think I’m going to be in enough trouble trying to
explain you to her.” he replies.
Lawrence said to me in the club last night "John, I haven't received your weekly rant" "Oh" I said "Do you actually read them?" "Yes" he replied "And they get better every week" Praise at last.
We got Frankie Boyle tickets in yesterday. We're going to see him in the Kings on the 16th of this month. What was it he said? "Islamic suicidal terrorism has just nose dived into an all time low. I wonder if it was anything to do with the photographs in the paper of my distant cousin, 49 year old virgin Susan Boyle".
Susan Boyle says she is single by choice. Not her own choice though.
Surely the least sexiest song ever is Susan Boyle's "Touch Me All Over"
First man: “Do you think there’s such a thing as a perfect man?” Second man: “Yes, that’s the man my wife should’ve married?”
Did you see the Essex Girl one liners in the papers today? I prefer to change it to Blonde Jokes. Here's some that are worth repeating.
Q:- Why do blondes wear knickers? A;- To keep their ankles warm.
Q:- What does a blonde say after sex? A;- "Wow. Do you really all play for the same team?"
Q:- What's the difference between a blonde and a supermarket trolley? A;- "A supermarket trolley has a mind of it's own"
Q:- What did the blonde say after the doctor told her she was pregnant? A;- "Are you sure it's mine?"
Q:- Why do blondes have TGIF on their shoes ? A;- "TOES GO IN FIRST"
A blind man is sitting in a bar. After a while, he yells to the bartender, "Hey, you wanna hear a blonde joke? "The entire place becomes so quiet you could hear a pin drop. In a deep, husky voice, the woman sitting next to him says, "Before you tell that joke, sir, I think it's only fair....given that you are blind....that you should know five things:
Number 1: I'm a 6-foot-tall,
175-lb. blonde woman with a black belt in karate. Number 4: The woman sitting next to me is a blonde professional weightlifter. And number 5: The bouncer is a blonde woman who once killed a man in self-defence! Now, think about it seriously, mister. Do ya still wanna tell that blonde joke?" The blind man thinks for a second, then shakes his head, and mutters, "Nah.. . . . not if I'm gonna have to explain it five times."
A blonde heard that milk baths would make her
beautiful. She left a note for her milkman to leave 25 gallons of milk.
When the milkman read the note, he felt there must be a
mistake. He thought she probably meant 2.5 gallons. So he knocked on the
door to clarify the point. The blonde came to the door and the milkman
said, "I found your note asking me to leave 25 gallons of milk. Did you
mean 2.5 gallons?" The blonde said, "I want 25 gallons. I'm going to fill
my bathtub up with milk and take a milk bath so I can look young and
beautiful again." The milkman asked, "Do you want it pasteurized?"
The blonde replied, "No, just up to my tits. I can
splash it on my eyes."

Now, this is funny but you have got to think about it.
This gull is flying over George Square just along from the old Glasgow Herald's Offices. It's feeling a bit lonely and horny. So it pops down on to prince Alberts head and starts chatting up this pigeon. One thing leads to another and they end up going the full way. A few months later the gull revisits George Square and it meets up with the pigeon. Next to the straggler was was an unkempt fledgling. That's not what I think it is? Is it? "Yes" replied the dove "That's ours" "And what's it's name?" asked the gull. Dougal replied the mother. Okay you don't get it Doo-gull.
This bloke complains to his doctor about his wife's lack of interest in sex. The Doctor tells the bloke to make her an appointment to see him. When the wife walks into the doctor's surgery the doctor was taken aback. Yes she was a looker. The doc asked what the problem was in the sex department. Look Doc she says "When get a taxi to work in the morning the driver always says "are you going to pay me or what?" Then when I get to work late my boss says Will I mark the lateness down on your time sheet or what? On the road home another taxi driver says "are you going to pay or what? By the time I get home I'm completely knackered. Doc replied "Do you want me to tell this to your husband 'or what'?

We were at the Theatre Royal the other night to see Stephen K Amos. A
coloured chap by nature an also colourful by character. The warm up
act was Des Clarke. He was on for the first half hour. The one I remember
was "Why does a breast of chicken not have a nipple on it?"
When Stephen started to encourage some audience participation. Nignog,
monkey, baboon, ape to name a few were shouted at him and he took it all
in good fun. At the end somebody shouted "I hope you catch alopecia you
black b*****d. He put his two hands up saying okay "Glasgow Audience" you

The dog is a likeable pet and the old fella is pleased about his new found companion. Curious about where the dog comes from he ties a note to the dog’s collar telling the story and making enquiries. Sure enough the next morning there’s a reply tucked below the collar. It read “Rex comes from a house where there are ten young children. Two of the youngsters are under three and Rex doesn’t get much sleep.
ps can I come with him?”

Australian Poetry Competition had come down
to two finalists,
a university graduate and an old aboriginal. They were given a word, then allowed two minutes to study the Word and come up with a poem that contained the word. The word they were given was ' TIMBUKTU ' First to recite his poem was the university graduate. He stepped up to the microphone and said: Slowly across the desert sand Trekked a lonely caravan Men on camels two by two Destination - Timbuktu The crowd went crazy! No way could the old aboriginal top that, they thought. The old aboriginal calmly made his way to the microphone and recited: Me and Tim a huntin' went Met three whores in a pop up tent They were three, and we was two So I bucked one, and Timbuktu The aboriginal won.
Two
businessmen in Florida were
sitting down for a break in their soon-to-be
new store. As yet, the store wasn't ready, with only a few shelves set up. One said to the other, 'I bet any minute now some senior is going to walk by, put his face to the window, and ask what we're selling.' No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious senior walked to the window, had a peek, and in a soft voice asked "What are you sellin' here?" One of the men replied sarcastically, "We're selling ass-holes." Without skipping a beat, the old timer said, "You're doing well. Only two left."

Bad weather joke
Auld Tam, the shepherd from outside Aberdeen, had not been seen for days. So a rescue helicopter was sent out, and found his remote cottage up to the eaves in snow. His rescuers finally dug down to his door, knocked on it and Auld Tam shouted: “Who is it?” When they replied that it was the Red Cross, Tam shouted back: “f**k off, I bought a flag from you last year.”

My granddaughter Sarah used to go to stables in Stonebyres. When the
lady started to tell her she was too busy for her to go there Sarah (of
her own back) booked up stables in Larkhall. Then went to the corner
shop and got a paper delivery job to pay the difference in the cost. The
first time I took Sarah to the Larkhall stables we couldn't find the
place. When Sarah telephoned the lady we were told to wait at the first
roundabout coming from Hamilton and she would come and meet us. "You'll
know my car" she said "It's blue with 2 bales of hay in the back
seat"
Not long back from Tenerife. When we arrived there at 10.30 on the Sunday night the temperature was 24 degrees. Arriving back in Glasgow a week later it was minus -6 degrees. It was a good break.
We were on the hotel roof doing a bit of sun bathing. I said to Liz “There’s another bloke has went into the nudest area” “Is he naked?” asks liz “I think so. I can see his bald napper over the top of the opaque screening.
One afternoon we were walking by the Hotel Princess Bahia when liz went over to the entertainment board. When she came back she said “It’s a tribute to the carpenters tonight and the Eagles on Saturday. I really wanted to go and see Billy Porter but Liz said we weren't going to see that foul mouthed poof. Well when 6 ft. high Karen came on stage with a mini skirt it was a bit of a put off but Liz said she was pretty good. On the Saturday we went in to see the Eagles. These enormous birds of prey started flying over the stage. Yes, it was a f*****g bird show.

A TELEVISION insider sends us a letter just received by ITV. It reads: “After much soul-searching, I regret to inform you that I wish to take no further part in I’m A Celebrity … Get Me Out of Here! “Although initially happy with the amount of air time I received, I began to realise the public must hate me, as I was picked to appear in every bush Fucker trial. “This has been a real ordeal for me, especially as I have now been bitten by a number of hideous creatures, and I can’t take it any more. “Yours sincerely, “Charlie the Cockroach.”
