Re: Wooden start!

My wife says a prominent retailer in our town used to display a wooden  bike as as decoration, yonks ago. Other wooden things too, but beyond detail memory.

Re: Your jokes

Here's a variant on a well known joke:

Rabbi Grossman is sitting one Saturday morning. He’s just come home from the synagogue and is bored silly. He wants to play golf. After wrestling with his conscience for an hour, he finally asks God to forgive him for breaking the Sabbath rules, throws his golf clubs in the car, and drives to a town 50 miles away so he won’t be recognized. He tees off.

Meanwhile, in heaven, Moses says to God, “Will you look at Rabbi Grossman breaking your holy Sabbath! What are you going to do about it?”
God thinks a minute, then just as Rabbi Grossman hits the ball on the 2nd hole, God blows out a huge, enormous, cosmic WHOOOSH and blows the ball right into the cup.
Moses exclaims, “Do you think this will teach him a lesson?! A hole in one?”
God smiles and says, “Think about it. Who can he tell?”

From the same comic website thread (Ripley Believe It or Not, today), not so well known, and I must confess, new to me:

I heard it differently. A preacher took his wife golfing. At the first hole, he sliced the ball, and yelled, “G/D it, I missed!” The wife said, “God’s going to get you for this!” The same thing happened at the next 2 holes. A big, black cloud came over, a bolt of lightning came down and killed the wife. A loud voice came from the cloud, saying, “G/D IT, I MISSED!”

I must confess, not new to me! It’s very many years since I first encountered that one.

My grandma rubbed butter on granddad's feet when he was ill. He went downhill fast after that.

I’ve just bought a Humpty Dumpty toy from Aldi. It’s brilliant, it comes with Aldi Kings horses and Aldi Kings men.

I used to be indecisive, now I'm not so sure.

Re: Your jokes

The CEO of the football club stood at the shredding machine and placed a sheet of paper on the tray.
He called: "any of you know how to use this contraption?"
A lad comes by and says: "here Guv, this button" and pushes it as the paper disappears.
The CEO replies:"Thanks lad, this piece of paper is going to save the club! Just the one copy please"
