My grandfather spent some time in hospital recently. During his stay he was told he needed a pacemaker. Ironically, it was the pacemaker that finally killed him.
The man was 92, I don't know how they expected him to keep up with the little Kenyan fucker.
So goes one of my favourite one liners.
Chatting to a friend while out for a few drinks last week, the following conversation ensued.
E: Something happened during the week that reminded me of that joke you do about your grandfather in hospital.
TBA: Oh?
E: I love that gag. Totally didn't see the punchline coming first time I heard it.
TBA: Well it helps if you don't telegraph it too much.
E: Anyway, I told the missus during the week... hated it. I don't think she even got it.
TBA: [on a wind up] Ah I'd say you told it arseways. Its all in the delivery.
E: No I told it perfectly - exactly the same way you do.
TBA: Oh? Maybe your timing was off. Let's hear it then.
E: Right so...
My grandfather spent some time in hospital recently. During his stay he was told he would need a triple by-pass. Ironically, that's what finally killed him. The man was 92, I don't know how they expected him to keep up with the little Kenyan fucker.
TBA: Seems fine alright.... I guess everybody's sense of humour is a little different.

Seldom enough sheepworrier.
Actually I'm not gigging a whole lot these days - too busy with work, wedding preparations, sleeping and so on.
Must get the finger out in the new year.
