On the subject of the Orange One, I'd like to adapt a little song from The Simpsons: Some folk'll never vote for Trump, but then again some folk'll, Like Cletus the slack jawed yokel.

Spookytooth Posted September 5, 2023 Author Share Posted September 5, 2023 Last night I was having a meal in an Indian restaurant. I was just finishing up and thinking about getting the bill when this little old lady came up to my table. She said: “You are such a lovely boy, with beautiful manners. You are a credit to your mum and dad.” Then off she toddled. I said to the waiter: "Excuse me, but who was that?" He said: "Ah yes sir - that’s your complimentary nan...."

Spookytooth Posted September 6, 2023 Author Share Posted September 6, 2023 My mate took two stuffed dogs to the '"Antiques Road Show". The presenter told him "This is a very rare set, produced by the celebrated Johns Brothers taxidermists who operated in London at the turn of last century. Do you have any idea what they would fetch if they were in good condition?" My mate though for a moment and said "Well, yeah...sticks."
