If anyone ever meets me ask for the one about the bacon tree. Best joke I know but I daren't publish it - it is so clean you could tell your gran but ity is MY joke and I don't wan't to over-hear it at an HU meet! Plus it's all in the telling. Here is a consolation prize:

Three couples move to a small town, and keen to get their future children into the best school (which is Catholic) they all decide to join the church. As none of them have been confirmed the parish priest gives them all the same challenge to complete before they are accepted "you must stay celibate for 6 weeks".

After 6 weeks they all return and the priest asks the first couple "have you fulfilled your initail commitment to the church?"

The first couple reply "yes father, our faith held storng and we refrained from any carnal acts". "Welcome to our church" says the father

The second couple reply "yes father, the first 4 weeks were OK but the last 2 were quite a challange, but our faith held storng and we refrained from any carnal acts" "Welcome to our church" says the father looking a little concerned

The third couple say "well the first week was OK, but durijng the second and third and fourth weeks we were tempted but our faith held strong", the priest looks pleased "BUT, however" the man continues "during the fifth week I saw my wife bend down and pick up a head of lettuce and couldn't control myself - I just ravished her there and then...

The priest looks dismayed and says "well my children, I am very sorry to say that you will not be welcome in your local Parish..."

"**** that" says the man... "We aren't welcome in our local Tesco"

Honeymooners

Three couples are on honeymoon at a hotel, the three blokes were at the bar and got talking football leaving the wives sitting alone bored, in the end the women said they were retiring to their respective bedrooms and told the blokes not to be too long, the guys agreed that they’d finish their pints and would follow shortly.
After the women had gone, one of the blokes suddenly said to the other two, “we’re all on our honeymoons so let’s have a little competition, let’s see who makes love to our new wives the most tonight” one of the others says “that’s a great idea, but how will we know who won as we can’t actually say anything in front of the women can we?” The other suggested, “Well lets all sit together for breakfast, and the number of times we made love will be reflected in the number of toast we order”. So having all agreed they went off to bed.
At breakfast the waiter came to their table and asked the first what he would like, “Poached eggs on two toast please” the others thought, ‘well he did it twice’
The second bloke said “well I’m feeling a bit hungry I’ll have a full English and four toast please” the other two thought ‘well he managed four times then’.
The third bloke said “I’ll have a full English, a side of fries, and six toast please” “oh, can you make that four white and two brown please”.

Wink Got to do something to fill the long days

Working people frequently ask retired people what they do to make their days interesting.

Well, for example, the other day my wife and I went to Worthing and went into a shop. We were only in there for about 5 minutes. When we came out, there was a cop writing out a parking ticket. We went up to him and said, 'Come on man, how about giving a senior citizen a break?' He ignored us and continued writing the ticket. I called him a Nazi turd. He glared at me and started writing another ticket for having worn tyres.

So my wife called him a shithead. He finished the second ticket and put it on the windshield with the first. Then he started writing a third ticket. This went on for about 20 minutes. The more we abused him, the more tickets he wrote.

Personally, we didn't care - we came into town by bus.

We try to have a little fun each day now that we're retired. It's important at our age

Bloody computers

My friend is having trouble with his system.
Last year he upgraded to Girlfriend 1.0 from Drinking Mates 4.2 which he'd
used for years without trouble.
> >
However, apparently there are conflicts between these two systems, the only solution was to try and run Girlfriend 1.0 with the sound turned off.
> >
But to make matters worse, Girlfriend 1.0 is incompatible with several
other applications, such as; Lads Night Out 3.1, Golf 2 and Playboy 6.0.
> >
Successive versions of Girlfriend proved no better, Girlfriend 3.0 has many
bugs and left a virus in his system, forcing him to shut down completely for
several weeks. Eventually he tried installing Girlfriend 2.1 as well as
Girlfriend 1.0 only to discover when these two systems detected each other
they caused severe damage to all his hardware.
> >
Sensing a way out, he upgraded to Fiance 1.0 only to discover to his dismay
that this system requires rapid upgrading to Wife 1.0. However, whilst Wife
1.0 uses up all available resources it does come bundled with FreeSexPlus
and Cleanhouse 2000.
> >
But imagine my friends disappointment though on discovering Wife 1.0 can be
unstable and costly to maintain, any mistakes he makes are automatically
stored in Wife 1.0 Hardrive and can not be deleted. They then re-surface
months later. Wife 1.0 also has an automatic InterDiary Explorer and E-mail Porn Filter.
> >
Wife 1.0 also automatically runs PhotoSTROP and WINGEzip and no option on
the Help menu seems to work, leaving him to try and GUESS the fault himself.
The system footprint needs updating regularly requiring Shoeshop browser
Pro for new attachments - Hairstyle Express needs to be reinstalled every
week.
It also refused some of the new Games and attachments he wanted to try,
stating they are an illegal operation.
> >
When Wife 1.0 attaches itself to Lotus Car 1.0 it often crashes or runs
the system dry.
> >
Wife 1.0 also has a rather annoying pop-up called Mother-in-law, which
can't be turned off.
> >
Recently he's been tempted to try Mistress 2000 add-on, but there could be
problems. If Wife 1.0 detects the presence of Mistress 2000, it will delete
all MS Money files before un-installing itself.
> >
> > Bloody computers!

Paddy had been drinking at his local Dublin pub all day and most of the night celebrating St Patrick's Day.

Mick, the bartender says, ' You'll not be drinking anymore tonight Paddy.


Paddy replies, 'OK Mick, I'll be on my way then.'

Paddy spins around on his stool and steps off. He falls flat on his face. 'Shoite' he says and pulls himself up by the stool and dusts himself off.

He takes a step towards the door and falls flat on his face, 'Shoite, Shoite!'

He looks to the doorway and thinks to himself that if he can just get to the door and some fresh air he'll be fine.

He belly crawls to the door and shimmies up to the door frame. He sticks his head outside and takes a deep breath of fresh air, feels much better and takes a step out onto the sidewalk and falls flat on his face. 'Bi'Jesus... I'm fockin' .,' he says.

He can see his house just a few doors down, and crawls to the door, hauls himself up the door frame, opens the door and shimmies inside.

He takes a look up the stairs and says 'No fockin' way'.


He crawls up the stairs to his bedroom door and says 'I can make it to the bed.'

He takes a step into the room and falls flat on his face.


He says 'Fock it' and falls into bed.

The next morning, his wife, Jess, comes into the room carrying a cup of coffee and says, 'Get up Paddy. Did you have a bit to drink last night?'.

Paddy says, 'I did Jess. I was fockin' pissed. But how'd you know?'












'Mick phoned, . . . You left your wheelchair at the pub.

Biggest Liar

Two old rivals meet in a bar and start lieing to each other about who is the best at every thing:
Simon;
"Well actually I had a very dificult day yesterday, I swam up Niagara falls with both hands tied behind my back and a block of concrete tied to my feet.."

Paul;
"I know, I saw you!"

Membership - help keep us going!

Horizons Unlimited is not a big multi-national company, just two people who love motorcycle travel and have grown what started as a hobby in 1997 into a full time job (usually 8-10 hours per day and 7 days a week) and a labour of love. To keep it going and a roof over our heads, we run events all over the world with the help of volunteers; we sell inspirational and informative DVDs; we have a few selected advertisers; and we make a small amount from memberships.

You don't have to be a Member to come to an HU meeting, access the website, or ask questions on the HUBB. What you get for your membership contribution is our sincere gratitude, good karma and knowing that you're helping to keep the motorcycle travel dream alive. Contributing Members and Gold Members do get additional features on the HUBB. Here's a list of all the Member benefits on the HUBB.
