I need a cheer up

You are not on your own. My son is feeling down at the moment, the bottom has fallen out of his industry. I'm doing my best to cheer him up.....but we have to rise above all of these things....don't look back....look forward...think about what you can do next and not what has already happened. Its a challenge.....aim as high as you can!

An 85-year-old man was requested by his doctor for a sperm count as part of his physical exam.
The doctor gave the man a jar and said, "Take this jar home and bring back a semen sample tomorrow." The next day the
85-year-old man reappeared at the doctor's office and gave him the jar, which was as clean and empty as on the previous day.
The doctor asked, what happened and the man explained.
"Well, doc, it's like this--first I tried with my right hand, but nothing. Then I tried with my left hand, but still nothing. Then I asked my wife for help. She tried with her right hand, then with her left, still nothing. She tried with her mouth, first with the teeth in, then with her teeth out, still nothing. We even called up Arleen, the lady next door and she tried too, first with both hands, then an armpit, and she even tried squeezin' it between her knees, but still nothing."
The doctor was shocked! "You asked your neighbor?"
The old man replied, "Yep, none of us could get the jar open."

This still makes me laugh so hope I smile. When my small granddaughter was not long started highland dancing lessons, she came in with a sad face. “ what’s wrong? “ “ I was learning the highland fling and I had one leg up in the air, then I accidentally put up the other leg too, so I fell on my bum . “

A burglar crept into a dark house and as he crossed the room he heard a voice say, "JESUS IS WATCHING YOU!" He froze in his tracks and waited. He started walking again, and again the voice came "JESUS IS WATCHING YOU". Finally the burglar's eyes adjusted to the dark and with great relief he saw a parrot in a cage in the corner. "What's your name," he asked the parrot. "Bonzo" said the parrot. "Who gave you that stupid name" sneered the burglar. "The same guy who named the Rottweiller Jesus."

I am sorry your country is so unsettled at this time,it is very worrying.
If you are on Pinterest,type in "funny animals" and there will be lots to make you laugh.If not,try Youtube and look for Rob Beckett,he always makes me laugh!

Why don't you have a look on YouTube for Jeanne Robertson's videos. She's a really funny lady, guaranteed to make you laugh.

Newquay - those of us who live abroad can't get catch up TV. But most series are uploaded to Youtube within hours of their being broadcast. I keep up with University Challenge, Have I got News for You and QI like that. And recently, I've been binge watching the Laurie and Fry "Jeeves and Wooster" programmes - all available on Youtube! Great escapism and very uplifting!

However, and this will interest Lisalou, all BBC radio IS available on the i-player. We can download or stream all the familiar Radio 4 comedies and other programmes. In fact, even Radio 1 podcasts are fun to listen to sometimes, because the music has been cut out.

If you want quirky music you can stream 6music. My absolute favourite is Cerys Matthews on a Sunday morning. She plays an eclectic mix of recordings she's found, even sometimes classical music, and lots of "world music". Won't make you laugh, but makes you feel good!

Mission accomplished, sleep well Lisa

Can you get "catch up" English telly? If you can find "gold" and "Dave" channels-they have some lovely "old" comedies that make me laugh out loud.

Thanks gals, I can go to bed with a grin on my face - and thank you for the youtube videos - Micky Flanagan was new for me, will watch more, no doubt. I love only fools and horses, and the two ronnies with the four candles/fork 'andles is an old favourite.

¡Anima, chica! This always makes me smile.

I know things are very unsettled for us at the moment, but we just have to keep our heads down and let them get on with it. I don't think Puigdemont's jumping ship has helped his cause.

It could be worse, you could be living in the UK at the moment. Colder, darker and with the Brexit negotiations being conducted by a group incompetents that couldn't organise a p*ss-up in a brewery and who are rapidly reducing the UK to a shambles that will soon have us all needing to use a Food Bank. Makes Catalunya's problems look simple.

Menopaws.

It may or may not work for Lisalou but it makes me laugh.

Thanks for back up ladies I thought it might be disapproved of!

This is supposed to be the funniest bit of TV ever:

enjoy!

Micky Flanagan is so funny. Great idea Menopaws!
Sorry you're feeling blue Lisalou. Check out Micky. You won't regret it.

Right watch this, I can't do the link but look up Micky Flanagan on YouTube and the bit called ...the shits abroad...
The worst word is shit, if you don't like him or toilet humour then don't watch it but it will make you laugh but I watched it earlier and Spain is mentioned hence the connection. Worth a try!

I love Spain and I'm sad about its recent problems, too, but there's not much that you as an individual can do about it, so no point worrying. It's got cold here in the UK the last couple of days so think of us shivering when it is probably a good few degrees warmer where you are. Does that cheer you up? Also it is only six weeks to the shortest day and after that the days will get longer? Feeling better? No? Well, perhaps you do need a funny joke to make you smile. How about Brexit? That's becoming a massive joke. I'm sure there'll be someone along in a minute to tell you a really funny joke. Sorry I'm not much help.
