    It’s true, nothing is made in the UK anymore ….. I’ve just bought a new TV and the Box says, “built in antenna”
    I don’t even know where the **** Antenna is !!!!

    I made a typing mistake when trying to upload a calendar app to my phone.

    I ended up with a colander app.

    All it does is drain the battery.

    I was on a Scrabble team with Midge Ure.

    We had four tiles left but they meant nothing to me.

    A reminder for Sunday.


    AN emergency alert being tested on Sunday could one day be used to help find abducted children.

    On April 23 every 4G and 5G smartphone will sound a siren and vibrate for 10 seconds at 3pm.

    A test message will be displayed. The Government’s Cobra Committee plans to use the system to warn of floods and fires.

    But it could also describe a suspect vehicle after a kidnapping.

    The system can be localised to an individual council ward, officials say.

    Minister Oliver Dowden said it was “a vital tool to keep the public safe”.

    About a month before he died, my grandfather covered his back with lard, after that he went downhill very quickly.

    My uncle died peacefully in his sleep last week....
    Unlike the 52 passengers on his bus.

    My uncle fell unconscious on the baggage carousel, but it's OK he's coming around slowly.

    A guy goes into a Scottish baker's. "How much is that cake?"

    "A poond."

    "And how much is that one?"

    "A poond. All ma cakes are a poond!"

    "Oh, OK. What about that one?"

    "Ach, that one's two poonds."

    "Oh. Why's that then?"

    "That's Madeira cake."

    Fantastic song. I used to sing it to my kids when they were babes to get them to sleep. Worked like a charm and cathartic too.

    My wife’s is leaving me because she thinks I’m obsessed with astronomy.
    What planet is she on?
