Off Topic And Now for Something Completely Different

So the lads asked if I wanted to go out for a drink last night. I checked with the Mrs Ron that we didn't have anything planned already, and told her I was going out but would be back by midnight.

A few beers too many resulted in me getting home at 3.00 am.

As I opened the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall cuckooed 3 times.

Thinking that this might wake Mrs R I hastily cuckooed 9 more times. Genius, eh! Drunk as a skunk, but still quick witted.

I crawled in to bed without waking Mrs R

The following morning she asked me what time I got in.

"Midnight, why?"

"We need a new clock in the hall then."

When I asked her why, she replied "Well last night our clock cuckooed 3 times, then said "Oh cr@p," cuckooed 4 more times, cleared it's throat, cuckooed 3 more times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, then tripped over the cat and farted."

Not the one bloke with an axe to grind you posted

 

Quite a clever idea this:

Beeching was a **** by the way.

 

You have to wonder what some people have between their ears - probably the stupidest answer I've ever heard on any quiz programme

 

goood bike ride is that

 

Suggest to the Mrs that t'cuckoo clock is one model Einstein did not approve at the Bern patent office. In fact emphasize that he was overruled by his boss at the time.
There's a relativistically good chance she'll believe you and all will be forgiven. Maximize the use of your genius Ron.

Don't be posting images of clocks on here, some are still traumatized.



The views expressed in my posts are not necessarily mine.

 

Drat, forgot about the wonder from down under who cobbled timepieces together.
Mind you, didn't he switch to making gift bags of cutlery. Or was that John Harrison who thought up Longitude and was given extreme latitude by one of the Georges (not Boy George) to save many a sailor ?

 

Ah the old ‘axe to grind’ conundrum, do you consider this fella also has an axe to grind?

 

No, I think he's a retired nurse earning a very nice supplemental income on YouTube by posting misleading clickbait.

 

Begs the question what did she think they were called before the Liberal Democrats formed?

 

Don't be doing this at home...

 

That's not how you light a fart girl...

 

Is fart girl DC or Marvel?

 

Viz?

 

Burnt.

 

Bit of an extreme way to get a Brazilian.

 

Brings a whole new meaning to 'she's hot'!

 

All the forests in Brazil are being burnt.

 

Beat me to it Rover...
