Just been to get a loaf of bread. It cost £1.03p. I offered the grumpy looking girl at the till a £20 note.
She said "have you got anything smaller as that would take all my change?"
I said "no sorry but I can pay on card if that helps?"
She sarcastically said " of course it would help"
So as I presented my card she said "Cash back?"
I said "Yes please!"
"How much?" She asked
I said "£18.97"

Not many people know that, before his big speech, Martin Luther King had two dreams.
However, he chose not to talk about the one with the talking penguin in the top hat.

My wife asked me what I was doing on the computer last night. I told her I was looking for cheap flights.
"I love you!" she said, and then she got all excited, quickly undressed and we had the most amazing sex ever....
Which is odd because she's never shown an interest in darts before.

Yesterday I had an appointment to see the urologist for a prostate exam. Of course I was a bit on edge because all my friends have either gone under the knife or had those pellets implanted.
The waiting room was filled with patients. As I approached the receptionist's desk, I noticed that the receptionist was a large unfriendly woman who looked like a Sumo wrestler. I gave her my name.
In a very loud voice, the receptionist said, "YES, I HAVE YOUR NAME HERE; YOU WANT TO SEE THE DOCTOR ABOUT IMPOTENCE, RIGHT?"
All the patients in the waiting room snapped their heads around to look at me, a now very embarrassed man.
But as usual, I recovered quickly, and in an equally loud voice replied, “NO, I'VE COME TO INQUIRE ABOUT A SEX CHANGE OPERATION, BUT I SURE DON'T WANT THE SAME DOCTOR THAT DID YOURS.”
The room erupted in applause!
DON'T MESS WITH OLD RETIRED GUYS!!!

I was at the doctors and I told him "I'm can't stop thinking about giants and I find them very scary."
He said "It sounds like Feefiephobia."

I just swapped 50 raisins for 100 sultanas. I just can’t believe the currant exchange rate.
It looks cold, I’ll need my coat.

"It doesn't matter what I do or say," I told the wife, "I'm always wrong in your eyes."
"That's not true," she said.

If the British Prime Minister makes it to the 31st of next month, will it be the end of May?
