Hands Up, Did you Laugh,

[andybrennan]

Hi all,

Did you break into peals of laughter when a Pal, Brother Sister etc,

Had a fall ,slip or otherwise and you just could not control the laughter,

and this was made worse when the poor unfortunate would say "what are you laughing at its not funny," and away you would go again.

Another laughter for no reason bursting into titters of laughter for some image or words that were said, for or no reason and when asked what were you laughing at all you would do is laugh titter and maybe tears would run down your face or pee in your pants, wasn't life simple when young

any memories if so share them

Hi Andy,
I still laugh not at silly things, while travelling to Australia a couple of weeks ago there was a gentleman singing to the music he was listening to and we were all laughing at him, I then
started to watch Cats and Dogs (still a child at heart), and the first 10 minutes I couldn't stop laughing and kept thinking about what I'd just seen and started laughing again there was tears streaming from my eyes my stomach hurt then I realised everyone was looking at me including the singing man, so I said to him, "well you were singing" half shouting to the opposite side of the plane and I thought You just sounded like Ross in Friends and started laughing again, I think they thought I was looney, well they're not far wrong. So on the way home I watched it again and was in fits again, its good to laugh.

Thats the effect I was after, where one laughs at a thought of something gone past, and bursting into uncontrollable laughter,
Spontaneous Laughter
Any one in your company has no clue as to what you are laughing at,

Like the old song, There coming to take me away ha ha he he ho ho, before your time.

Regards Andy

Hi Folks.
Well i was at midnight Mass at St John Fishers Church in Morden with my Wife & daughter 12Yrs and Son15Yrs about 21yrs ago.
This Lady who was quite elderly went up to the pulpit to sing one of the hymns and sang in a high pitched voice out of tune i never hear the like it would scare the banshee.
Well i felt the laughter coming and bit my sleeve to keep control and my whole Family were laughing with tears coming down our eyes.
There were three Priests and they had put their hands up to cover their faces were they were seated at the alter.
Well i thought she would never stop as she was unaware the affect her singing was having .
It was lucky someone didn't collapse through lack of breath trying to stop the peels of laughter.
The more you tried to control it the worst it got and it had spread like a ripple throughout the whole congregation and everyone was in fits
I heard some bad singers on the ex factor but this took the biscuit.
Well it did set a good tone for the new Year .(TEARS OF LAUGHTER)

Hi Andy,

My sister Kathy and myself always have a good laugh and the most silliest of things (even at our age). A good belly laugh is the best medicine you can get.

Best wishes.
