A Little Bit Of Humour # 163

Dad said “I’m going to Thailand
To an island called Phuket”

But you don’t say it like that”

Panama hats, I was seriously misled
It turns out they’re not Panamanian
And are made in Ecuador instead

FIRST GRADE CADDY

His five-year-old nephew wanted
To caddy for him on his Golf round
“You have to count my strokes,
So, your counting has to be sound”

“Five,” answered the nephew.
The Uncle said, “Ok that’s fine”

BE MY VALENTINE # 2

On Valentine’s Day
The chocolate syrup said to the ice cream
“I'm sweet on you!”
While the pencil said to the paper
“I dot my i's on you!”
And the light bulb asked his girlfriend
Do I mean a whole watt to you?”

COULD JESUS HAVE BEEN JEWISH?

Could Jesus have been Jewish?
It is the most likely eventuality

And she was sure He was God, so maybe

Think I’ll cut the lawn naked, honey?”

Thinking I married you for your money”

Roses are flowers
Violets are flowers
You’re allergic to flowers

NICKNAMED SNOW PLOUGH

When my brother was a young man
He had a well earned nickname
They called him the “snow plough”
Because of his appetite for cocaine

And rolls both plain and seedy
She is a very difficult woman
And I find her to be very kneady

Because the war really lasted
A hundred and sixteen instead

BE MY VALENTINE # 1

Stick with me and we'll go places!
While the farmer gave his wife
Hogs and kisses!
And the caveman gave his wife
Ughs and kisses!

Maybe, its true he liked Gospel

And He didn't get a fair trial

MARITAL RELATIONS

A post argument couple
Drove down a country lane
For quite a few miles,
Choosing not to speak again
Until they drove past a farm
When he said, “Relatives of yours?”
Referring to the pigs in a field
“Oh yes,” she replied, “in-laws”

MY GREAT UNCLE IS A SCIENTIST

My Great Uncle is a scientist
As well as a keen horticulturist
Which is quite evident to see
As he’s growing a chemistree

CWTCH

There is a general misunderstanding
That a cuddle is the same everywhere
Well allow me to clear up the muddle
Anyone can indeed hug, that’s true
But only the Welsh can cwtch, and
They’re so much better than a cuddle

IS IT PANCAKE DAY ALREADY?

Is it Pancake Day
Already? Oh dear
It’s really crêped up
On me this year

THEY HAD A ROCK AND ROLL NIGHT

They had a rock and roll night
At the care home, all very droll
It was a quite sedentary evening
And was more like Crock and Roll

ARE YOU WEARING PINK? # 2

Are you wearing a Pink?

When you hint at every stitch

THE OLD SAYING GOES

The old saying goes
“If you can't beat them, join them”

Because they will be expecting
You to “join them”,
As a result you will take them
Completely by surprise

If she was just to roll her spliffs a bit tighter

That the vicar said raspberry pavlova
