yes andy, doin fine thank you, and all who wished me well, it's just the walkin bit and the speeech now.
my wife rose has been telling me for the last 40 odd years that she will never understand me. so nothing changed there haha.
UNA, my daughter understands me perfectley, she deals wit all sorts of different nationalites on a day to day basis. i dont use a stick now. still got some of my stammer i used to have when i was growing up after about 50 years , but it's going bit by bit,
Went into a jewlers yesterday asked a young chap for a watch, he says "analouge" i said no just the watch.
Went into the pub to get a drink, said to the barman "still orange please" just then the phone rang and he answered it, when he finished the call, he sais to me "still orange sir" still orange says i, i havnt changed my mind.
came home and told the wife i got a job at the bowling ally, she says "tenpin"? i said no "permnant".
went to the pet shop , i said "can i buy a gold fish?" the guy said 'do you want an aquarium' i sais ' dont care what signe it is'.
this lorry full of tortoises collided with a van full of terrapims on the A5, it was a turtle disaster.
my uncle Jimmy went down to the pub every saturday night for at least 45 years , this night he put on his coat as usual, an the we woman said hang on im going too, he helped her on with her coat, off they went, in they go an barman fred said same as usual yea says jimmy, we sally thumps the counter an said i will have the same, two pints an two whisky chasers up on the counter, Jimmy downs his an the we woman follows suit. she pulls a face most contorted, my god she says how can you come down here every saturday night and drink this vile stuff, ay'e sasy Jimmy an theres you sitting at home thinking im down here enjoying my self.
these are not jokes , i promised i wouldn't tell any more, so lets say they are life's experiances.
here is a bit of fun you can have with grand children or grown up's,,, ask this question ? a bus driver pulles up at his first stop and picks up 10 people next stop picks up 7 an drops 4 an so on droping off an picking up after they have done thier addin an takin away ( this is the sting in the tail ) ask how many bus stops the bus driver stopped at, because you have not as yet asked a question ,, now you can sit back and enjoy. post how much fun you have had. edward.

Re: A Little bit of Festive Mirth (clean)stuff Hi all A true story told to a young family whose father was as tight fisted with the cash, in the lead up to Christmas the father( Scrouge)having heard all the childrens requests for toys for christmas put all the kids into the car and headed off to the National stud, and low and behold he took them over to a small grave stone which had this inscription on it. Here lies the body of Santa Claus, and then with the kids eyes welling up with tears the Father announced christmas is finished as Santy is gone. bye for now. Johnny

andy,, some years ago about year dot, i was working on a building site , an the conversation turned to the fastest thing in the world. there was a fellow from Scotland, another guy was English, an there was a bloke from some where in Ireland. the fellow from england says electricty was the fastest thing in the world. well i dont think so said the guy from scotland , i think the blink of an eye is faster, you do it thousands of time a day an you dont even see it.
the bloke from ireland says i think you are all wide of the mark. i think diarrhea is the fastest thing in the world. the guy from scotland says i dont agree, why do you think that.
irish bloke says, last thursday i had diarrhea , and i had neither the time to blink my eyes or put the light on. edwaed

Re:A Little bit of Festive Mirth(Clean Stuff) Hi all in work this morning and the topic changed into sayings, and a strange one came up which goes as follows,the'Dead Ringer' It seems that this saying came about when a person whom was about to pass on into the next life, and they would request that a bell would be put inside the coffin in case they woke up and found themselves in a situation beyond their control, so they would ring the bell to get attention to their situation and be saved. hence the saying He's a dead ringer, bye for now Johnny

The Boss. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------- When the body was first made, all the parts wanted to be The Boss.
The Brain insisted- "Since i control everything, i should be the Boss".
The Feet said "Since we carry man where he wants to go we should be the boss".
The Hands said, "since we do all the work, and earn all the money to keep the rest of you going, we should be Boss".
The Eyes too staked thier claim, "since we must watch for all of you, we should be the Boss".
And so they went on and on - the Heart, the Ears and - finally the Bum, how all the others laughed to think the Bum should be the Boss!.
Then the Bum became mad and refused to function, The Brain became feverish. the Eyes crossed and ached, the Legs got wobbly and the stomach got sick.
All pleaded with the Brain to relent, and let the Bum be the Boss.
And so it came to be - that all the other parts did thier work and the Bum became the Boss - and passed a load of cr@p!. MORAL. You dont need to be a BRAIN to be the boss. - only a Bum. edward.

An Irishman was terribly overweight, so his doctor put him on a diet.
'I want you to eat regularly for 2 days, then skip a day, and repeat this procedure for 2 weeks. The next time I see you, you should have lost at least 5 pounds.
When the Irishman returned, he shocked the doctor by having lost nearly 60lbs!
'Why, that's amazing!' the doctor said, 'Did you follow my instructions?'?
The Irishman nodded...'I'll tell you though, I t'aut I were going to drop dead on dat 3rd day.'?
'From the hunger, you mean?' asked the doctor.?
'No, from the' skippin'

This is a story told to me in the summer of 1967 when i meet a young girl in a park in Southall Middx, she was in a wheelchair. so no brick bats please.
============================================== one day a faith healer came to town, started into his speech about what a good faith healer he is, he asked for voulenteers to come foward.
a man went up on two crutches, the faith healer asked him whappened to him, bad accident he replied, doctors have done all they can do, this is it for the rest of my life, ok said the faith healer, come to the village stream at three o clock. a fellow goes up an he has his right arm all twisted up and back to front an was usless to him, asked why it was like that, he said it i was born like it, same thing again come to the stream at three o clock.
then next up was a girl in a wheelechair, and whats happened to you young lady, struck down with polio she replied, faith healersays i am not making any gaurantee's but come to the village stream at three o clock.
three o clock came and there was a big crowd, some came to watch and gawp others cane to be cured of thier ailments. the faith healer was there on his soapbox,. ok said the faith healer to the man with the bad leg , go into the stream an half way across throw your crutches away an watch them float away, keep your hips below the water , get out of the stream under your own power you cannot except any help,
off he went an done as instructed got out the far side an his leg was perfect , he got a football an started kicking it about.
the fellow with the gammy arm is next , go across the stream an keep yur shoulders below the water, he get out, an his arm is perfece, an started playind football with the other felow.
the girl in the wheelchair was next , all excited at what she had just seen,shouted, me next me next, ok sait the healer go across the stream an stay in your wheelchair, she carries out the order an crosses the stream, when she gets out the far side, she has two new tyres on her wheelchair. edward.
