 |  |
| A young man saw an elderly couple sitting down to a meal at McDonald's. He
noticed that they had ordered one meal, and an extra cup. As he watched, the
gentleman carefully divided the hamburger in half, then counted out the fries,
one for him, one for her, until each had half of them. The he poured half of
the soft drink into the extra cup and set that in front of his wife. The old
man then began to eat, and his wife sat watching, with her hands folded in her
lap. The young man decided to ask if they would allow him to purchase another meal for them so that they didn't have to split theirs. The old gentleman said, "Oh no. We've been married 50 years, and everything has always been and will always be shared, 50/50." The young man then asked the wife if she was going to eat, and she replied, "Not yet, it's his turn with the teeth." | |
Tony Blair |
|---|
| Saint Tony (he of the supercilious grin) was visiting a local nursing
home. Much to the embarrassment of the local civic dignitaries, and indeed to
Saint Tony himself, no one seemed to know who he was. Not to be put out our hero walked up to two of the residents who were sitting nearby. "Do you know who I am" he asked smiling all the while. "No" they replied puzzled. "But if you go and see Matron she will be able to tell you, she keeps a list in the office with everyone's name on you know". |

Hereward the Wake |
|---|
| You've never heard of him? OK! Here's some background then. Hereward the Wake was an Anglo-Saxon thane (find a decent dictionary for that one) and rebel. He lead the last organised English resistance against the Norman invaders. Also, he was the hero of Charles Kingsley's romance Hereward the Wake. A lot of people don't realise his full name was Hereward the Wakefield. He had to shorten it so that it would fit on his Visa card! |
