Sad days when you've to resort to one of those....

That said, I couldn't help noticing that the first mention by SWMBO of us buying another horse - which we just happen to have been looking after for the last couple of months, came hot on the heels of my having a had a drink fuelled weekend here in Budapest with the lads instead of a weekend at home repairing whatever fencing the animals had conspired to destroy/bypass in my absence!

The world is a tragedy to those who feel, but a comedy to those who think.

Considering most people can't understand why we've one Percheron, they'll be baffled as to why we've got two... though being as they're half brothers, I have horrible feeling that the next thing on the we need list will be a two horse carriage

At the end of the tax year the Tax Office sent an inspector to audit the books of a synagogue. While he was checking the books he turned to the Rabbi and said, "I notice you buy a lot of candles. What do you do with the candle drippings?"

"Good question," noted the Rabbi.

"We save them up and send them back to the candle makers, and every now and then they send us a free box of candles."

"Oh," replied the auditor, somewhat disappointed that his unusual
question had a practical answer.But on he went, in his obnoxious way

"What about all these matzo purchases? What do you do with the crumbs?"

"Ah, yes," replied the Rabbi, realising that the inspector was trying to trap him with an unanswerable question. "We collect them and send them back to the manufacturers, and every now and then they send a free box of matzo balls." "I see," replied the auditor, thinking hard about how he could fluster the know-it-all Rabbi.

"Well, Rabbi," he went on, "what do you do with all the leftover foreskins from the circumcisions you perform?"

"Here, too, we do not waste," answered the Rabbi. "What we do is save up all the foreskins and send them to the Tax Office, and about once a year they send us a complete dick."

Double the size of the horses, lop the roof off the carriage (every family needs one cabriolet) And you'd be heading in the right direction.

Go here to get a better idea of what they're like....

Horse, you'd better ask KB for an old-timers joke section if you're going to carry on like that!

She told me we couldn't afford beer anymore and I'd have to quit.

Then I caught her spending:

$65.00 on make-up, $150 for a cut & colour, $30 for a manicure, $40 for

a pedicure, $50 on vitamins, $300 on clothes and $600 for a gym
membership.

I asked how come I had to give up stuff and not her.

She said she needed it to look pretty for me.

I told her that was what the beer was for.

I don't think she's coming back.

Popeye

A wee kick tae the english!! lol


A big city London lawyer went duck hunting in rural Scotland. He shot and dropped a bird, but it fell into a farmer's field on the other side of a fence.

As the lawyer climbed over the fence, an elderly farmer drove up on his tractor and asked the lawyer what he was doing. The lawyer responded, "I shot a duck and it fell into this field, and now I'm going to retrieve it."

The old farmer replied. "This is my property, and you're not coming over here." The indignant lawyer replied. "I'm one of the best trial lawyers in the UK, and if you don't let me get that duck, I'll sue you and take everything that you own.

The old farmer smiled and said, "Apparently, you don't know how we do things in Scotland. We settle small disagreements like this, with the Scottish Three Kick Rule."

The lawyer asked, "What is the Scottish Three Kick Rule?" The farmer replied, "Well, first I kick you three times and then you kick me three times, and so on, back and forth until someone gives up."

The attorney quickly thought about the proposed contest and decided that he could easily take the old codger. He agreed to abide by the local custom.

The old farmer slowly gets down from the tractor and walked up to the city fella. His first kick planted the toe of his heavy work boot into the lawyer's groin, which dropped him to his knees.

His second kick nearly ripped the nose off his face. The lawyer was flat on his belly, when the farmer's third kick to a kidney nearly causing him to give up, but didn't.

The lawyer summoned every bit of his will and managed to get to his feet and said, "Okay, you old to**er, now it's my turn."

The old farmer smiled and said, "Naw, I give up, you can keep the duck!"
