Picture and Intro

The intention is to make you smile every day; if you get a good belly laugh; so much the better. Every day we will deliver a short(ish) joke or one amusing photograph or cartoon. There will be no endless lists of jokes or photographs... if you don't find it amusing... there's always tomorrow.

Being totally 'politically correct' is impossible with humour (or in life for that matter), and we have no intention of being that boring. Whilst there is no intention to cause offence to anyone, with the wide choice of topics, it's possible that your nationality/religion/political inclination... will supply the punch line, or butt, of a joke. If you're likely to take offence, please do not subscribe, stay sad. For the rest of us, let's laugh at ourselves, as well as others.

The contributions come from a variety of sources; some are 'home grown', some submitted by friends, and from now, some will be from YOU. If you wish to contribute a joke, amusing photograph, or cartoon, please submit it using this form.

Olympics

It's 2012 and it's the Olympics in London.

A Scotsman, an Englishman and an Irishman want to get in, but they haven't
got tickets.

The Scotsman picks up a manhole-cover, tucks it under his arm and walks to
the gate.

"McTavish, Scotland," he says, "Discus," and in he walks.

The Englishman picks up a length of scaffolding and slings it over his
shoulder.

"Waddington-Smythe, England," he says, "Pole vault," and in he walks.

The Irishman looks around, picks up a roll of barbed wire and tucks it under
his arm.

"O'Malley, Ireland," he says, "Fencing."

Noah

One day God calls down to Noah and says "Noah, I want you make me a new
Ark".

Noah replies, "No probs, anything you want".

But God interrupts, "ah but there's a catch this time Noah, I want not just
a couple of decks, ..... I want 20 decks one on top of the other".

"20 decks!......" screams Noah, "...well, whatever you say, should I fill it
up with all the animals just like last time?"

"..... yep, that's right, well ..... sort of right.......this time I want
you to fill it up with water and fish" God answers.

"Fish?" queries Noah.

"Yep, fish ... well, to make it more specific Noah, I want carp, wall to
wall, floor to ceiling - carp!" says God.

Noah looks to the skies, "OK, let me get this right, you want a new Ark, 20
stories high, filled with water and fish..........carp?"......."Why?"

"Dunno" says God. "I just fancied a multi-storey carp Ark".

Two little boys

Two little boys, ages 8 and 10, are excessively mischievous.

They are always getting into trouble and their parents know if any mischief
occurs in their town, the two boys are probably involved.

The boys' mother heard that a preacher in town had been successful in
disciplining children, so she asked if he would speak with her boys. The
preacher agreed, but he asked to see them individually.

The mother sent the 8 year old in the morning, with the older boy to see the
preacher in the afternoon. The preacher, a huge man with a deep booming
voice, sat the younger boy down and asked him sternly, "Do you know where
God is, son?"

The boy's mouth dropped open, but he made no response, sitting there
wide-eyed with his mouth hanging open.

So the preacher repeated the question in an even sterner tone, "Where is
God?!" Again, the boy made no attempt to answer. The preacher raised his
voice even more and shook his finger in the boy's face and bellowed, "WHERE
is GOD?!"

The boy screamed & bolted from the room, ran directly home & dove into his
closet, slamming the door behind him. When his older brother found him in
the closet, he asked, "What happened?"

The younger brother, gasping for breath, replied, "We are in BIG trouble
this time!"

"GOD is missing, and they think WE did it!"

Tommy Cooper

I knocked at my friend's door and his wife answered the door.

I said 'Is Jim in?'.

She didn't reply, just stood there looking at me.

So I asked again. Just then a woman appeared at his wife's elbow.

'Sorry luv' she said 'We buried him last Thursday'.

'He didn't say anything about a pot of yellow paint before he went, did he?'

Men socialise by insulting each other, but they don't really mean it.

Women socialise by complimenting each other, but they don't really mean it
either.
