Howdy folks,

Feeling pretty down in the dumps at the moment and in need of cheering up. Whos got some jokes or stupid videos to stick a smile on my face for 5 minutes?
 
I went to see the Red Arrows recently.

There were gasps of "Ooh" and "Aah" as the crowds watched on in amazement. Near miss after near miss had some people covering their eyes and shaking their heads in disbelief.

It was a good half hour's worth of entertainment, but in the end, my wife finally managed to park the car and we made our way to the air show.

A: His age.

SAT NAV....



I have a little Satnav
It sits there in my car
A Satnav is a driver's friend
It tells you where you are

I have a little Satnav
I've had it all my life
It’s better than the normal ones
My Satnav is my wife

It gives me full instructions
Especially how to drive
"It's thirty miles an hour", it says
"You're doing thirty five"

It tells me when to stop and start
And when to use the brake
And tells me that it's never ever
Safe to overtake

It tells me when a light is red
And when it goes to green
It seems to know instinctively
Just when to intervene

It lists the vehicles just in front
And all those to the rear
And taking this into account
It specifies my gear.

I'm sure no other driver
Has so helpful a device
For when we leave and lock the car
It still gives its advice

It fills me up with counselling
Each journey's pretty fraught
So why don't I exchange it
And get a quieter sort?

Ah well, you see, it cleans the house,
Makes sure I'm properly fed,
It washes all my shirts and things
And - keeps me warm in bed!

Despite all these advantages

And my tendency to scoff,

I do wish that once in a while

I could turn the damned thing off.

Police Stop At 2AM

An elderly man is stopped by the police around 2 a.m.
and is asked where he is going at this time of night.
The man replies, "I am on my way to a lecture about
alcohol abuse and the effects it has on the human body,
as well as smoking and staying out late."
The officer then asks, "Really?
Who is giving that lecture at this time of night?"
The man replies, "That would be my wife."

And finally... (I promise)

For all of you having a BBQ this weekend..

BBQ RULES We are about to enter the BBQ season. Therefore it is important to
refresh your memory on the etiquette of this sublime outdoor cooking activity. When a man volunteers to do the BBQ the following chain of events are put into motion:

(1) The woman buys the food.
(2) The woman makes the salad, prepares the vegetables
and makes dessert.
(3) The woman prepares the meat for cooking, places it on a tray along with the necessary cooking utensils and sauces, and takes it to the man who is lounging beside the grill - beer in hand.
(4) The woman remains outside the compulsory three metre exclusion zone where the
exuberance of testosterone and other manly bonding activities can take place without the interference of the woman.

Here comes the important part:
(5) THE MAN PLACES THE MEAT ON THE GRILL.
(6) The woman goes inside to organise the plates and cutlery.
(7) The woman comes out to tell the man that the meat is looking great. He thanks her and asks if she will bring another beer while he flips the meat.

Important again:
( THE MAN TAKES THE MEAT OFF THE GRILL AND HANDS IT TO THE WOMAN.
(9) The woman prepares the plates, salad, bread, utensils, napkins, sauce and brings them to the table.
(10) After eating, the woman clears the table and does the dishes.
And most important of all:
(11) Everyone PRAISES the MAN and THANKS HIM for his cooking efforts.
(12) The man asks the woman how she enjoyed her 'night off', and, upon seeing her annoyed reaction, concludes that there's just no pleasing some women.

Yes Steve. I geddit. Every time I hear them! :wink:

I think No skills wanted cheering up not a history lesson!
Nice try though.... :lol: :lol: :lol:
 
I was talking to my other half the other day about spiders. He doesn't like them and was suggesting that they all gang up, specifically to all come into our house in the Autumn and scare him.

He was wondering how they communicate. I told him it was obvious - by webmail....

(yes, we really did have that conversation)
 
I'm OK (mostly) with spiders, whats your other half like with rats? got one resident in our kitchen atm - ugh!

Thanks for all the effort folks, nice to be distracted with a smile for a bit :)

My woes are no worse than anybody elses and I'm at least healthy (I think! :shock: ), recent changes in the tax credit system have pulled the rug out from under us and our finances have gone from hanging on to freefall - I just cant see a way out of it all at the moment. This combined with lifes trials and tribulations has me mentaly stuffed atm. I know I know, break out the violins - stop moaning and get on with it. I'm trying!! honest I am, its just hard work.

I've been reminded of a Churchill quote this evening (ex-prime minister not the insurance dog :) )

"If your going through hell, keep going"

Good words indeed.
