Ding Dong Bell

[gin] she was indeed greatnan

I enjoyed that post Rufus, it made me laugh after a hard days work.

Thank you Rufus - I enjoyed that !!

Bloody hell! I’ve have enough of repeats on TV do we have to have it on here too?

That was just plain rude furret.

I hadn't heard that joke before so thanks for sharing Rufus

Sorry Rufus but why are you reposting GreatNan’s jokes? Seems a bit.....odd.

It was the fire engine the first time I heard it.

Furret I’m sure there will be GNetters who haven’t seen the jokes before and appreciate Rufus reposting them!

Furret what's the matter with you - nasty and unnecessary comments. Don't read the posts and you will have nothing to b***h about. The rest of us enjoyed the laugh

I have apologised. And there are reasons I’m questioning the source of the jokes which many of you don’t understand.

Well, I’d never heard that one before, so thank you, Rufus2.

I’ve heard it before, but it still made me chuckle, the old ones are the best !

I love a good joke but didn’t particularly like GreatNan .

She once threatened to report my DIL to the tax authorities when I said she was helping at a stable in return for stabling her own horse there . Of course she didn’t know me or my DiL but it still really upset me.

I'd not heard the joke before and will try to remember it to tell it to DH tonight.
I see your point though Gillybob. Not nice to make such threats.

Yes she really upset me at the time Jane10 and I considered leaving GN because if it . Looking back I know she couldn’t have traced my DiL but it did worry me for a while.

Sorry to put a downer on things ..... back to the jokes

and there are reasons I’m questioning the source of the jokes which many of you don’t understand
Furret Good Evening! Not sure we've met before, but welcome Your comment is a bit of a puzzle in that are we supposed to know , without you telling us, what reasons make you question the source or are you saying that many of us don't understand her jokes?
The source is GreatNan's marvellous legacy of jokes following her tragic death in 2013 and can be found in GN archives. She freely admitted to plagiarism followed by cutting and pasting.
You asked earlier as to why "we had to have it on here too"!
Quite simple! Good jokes are worth repeating and now would be a good time to lift spirits out of the trough of despair with a bit of a laugh, bearing in mind that we
have a number of new members who might have a sense of humour!
Imagine if you will, your OH, if you have one, comes to the breakfast table each day saying "Oh no! Not you again! How many more repeats do we have to have?"
Not very polite!
OoRoo

Och Rufus2 ignore her. She's probably having a bad day. Most of us enjoy these jokes and didn't have the chance to hear them before.

I’ve got a joke for you Rufus. But it isn’t about Grans specifically and is fairly old , however....
A very handsome italian man drives along the winding country lanes of Italy and spies an elderly lady sitting by the road side with an aged cow, he stops his very expensive Ferrari and asks her if she is alright, she replies that she is fine, but she enjoys the old country ways and often sits and chats to her old cow.
The man has heard of the old country ways and asks her if she has a special way of telling the time, she replies that she does. She carefully holds the cows full udders in her hands and moves them to the left , then to the right - it’s 5 o’clock she says. The man is thrilled , the old country ways work, his expensive watch confirms the time and he drives off happy.
After a little while the old lady gently lifts the cows udders again, as she peers around them she can see the clock on the old church In the village , 5.30 she says, time to go home........

Yes I am having a bad day (week) and I have appologise but some just like to stick the knife in a d others like to twist it.

Hope your day improves Furret

Rufus keep 'em coming, we haven't all heard them before!

It is an old joke, but in the version I heard, it was the fire engine going past!

Thanks squiffy

and is fairly old ,however
Oopsadaisy Dear oh dear! That is old and comes from an udder time! Any contributions gratefully received!
Btw. You may possibly read in another thread that I've just had another bout of BPPV. Fortunately it's cleared up for now. Same as before; thought you'd like to know!
Cheers
