What a week

 

It's been quite a week. My wife has joined the church choir. She spends a lot of time practicing at home. When she starts singing I quickly run and sit outside where my neighbours can see me. I don't want them to think I'm hitting her.

To distract her, I took her to the restaurant last night. The manager said, "Do you mind waiting for a bit?" I relied, "No!"So he asked to take the drinks to table 9 and ask them what they'd like to eat.

Whilst I was serving, a man rushed in from the street and asked me, "Quick ... how tall is a penguin?" I replied, "About three feet!" He said, "Oh dear me ... I have run over a nun!"  

I had a few drinks too many with our meal. So on the way home my wife drove the car. She crashed it and told the policeman who arrived on the scene that the man she collided with was speaking on his cell-phone and was drinking a can of beer at the time. The policeman said that the man can do what he likes in his living room.

After all the paperwork and formalities the policeman suggested I register for a donor card. He's a man after my own heart!

By the way, did I ever tell you that we named our two children War and Peace ... it's a long story!

I was really embarrassed the other day. My wife nearly caught me playing with my son's train set. So I quickly threw the bed sheet all over it. I think I managed to cover my tracks.

Do you know the quickest way to turn a sofa into a bed? Forget your wife's birthday. I did so last week and she said she'll make sure I never forget it again.

    1. What is it with wives and remembering dates like birthdays and anniversaries? I got mine a calendar and told her to put the dates she wants to remember on it. That way I don't have to bother.

      God bless you, Jack. (I don't understand women!)

      But learn to listen to your wife sing, hahaha.
      Kisses.

      It is good to laugh, Mathilde. When my wife sings she frightens all the birds away from our garden.
      God bless you.

  11. I needed a few laughs today and you were very successful in making this happen...I am amazed by how you can remember all of this comedy. I can hear a joke and before I can repeat it, I've already forgotten it.

    1. I used to write comedy sketches years ago, Shug, and present them on stage; also I presented variety acts on stage and did a bit of stand-up. It was a group of people who presented shows for charity. So I had to remember a series of jokes in "subject" matter - wives, mothers-in-law, religion, animals and so on. I also presented comedy on my radio programs.

      I'm so glad you enjoyed my post today; please invite your friends here too.

      God bless.
