We have reached my target of 1,000 jokes and the thread has to be closed. Would anybody like me to start a new thread, just entitled 'Jokes' so everyone can find it?

Yes, Please.

Why not - we all need to have something to smile or laugh about, particularly with the winter approaching - open up Gransnet and have a laugh first thing in the morning, start the day right.

Yes definitely! grin

When I saw the thread title, I was ready to jump in and protest that someone would think we'd had enough. Of course, we haven't!

Thanks for your efforts Greatnan. You've given me lots of giggles since starting that thread flowers

Yes please Greatnan.

Ella46 Wed 03-Oct-12 08:37:14

Yes please Greatnan, it's good to have a giggle! Thank you.

It is always the first thread I read, so yes please Greatnan! grin

Greatnan Wed 03-Oct-12 08:48:37

O.K. I am finding new sites every day, so I won't need to repeat any jokes. By the way, you have to read the title of this thread with a Jewish accent!

Don't stop, Greatnan!

Anne58 Wed 03-Oct-12 09:17:24

Carry on already.

Don't read it myself, but I can't see any harm in it. grin

Learnergran Wed 03-Oct-12 10:03:28

Yes please, Greatnan, if ever I needed a laugh it's now.

Greatnan Wed 03-Oct-12 10:06:10

Don't you like jokes, jingle? That surprises me. I am very glad you don't see any harm in them.

JO4 Wed 03-Oct-12 10:09:37

I thought of putting 'sarkie old so and so, crossed out, but I thought I'd better not. grin

JO4 Wed 03-Oct-12 10:11:17

I left out ones of these: ' . Should have gone after the "sarkie old so and so

God. I'm making this worse. hmm

Greatnan Wed 03-Oct-12 10:11:17

Not at all sarcastic - I meant every word. I don't think I know anybody else who does not like some jokes - obviously I try to avoid anything offensive here.

JO4 Wed 03-Oct-12 10:15:48

" I am very glad you don't see any harm in them"

That's the sarkie bit! grin

JO4 Wed 03-Oct-12 10:16:55

I love the ones my GSs tell me. Especially when they get it wrong! grin Though the older one is getting very good at it.

Greatnan Wed 03-Oct-12 10:26:24

You are wrong, jingle - I genuinely meant I was glad you did not find the jokes I had chosen offensive.

JO4 Wed 03-Oct-12 10:31:12

You are very kind. smile

crimson Wed 03-Oct-12 10:34:00

Yes, more jokes please, Greatnan..they cheer me up no end [especially now that J has given you permission even though she doesn't read them herself [sarkie emoticom chortle].

Pete Wed 03-Oct-12 19:29:42

A day without laughter is like a day without sunshine (or is that Beer?) So YES carry on grin

Greatnan Wed 03-Oct-12 19:44:25

Come on, Pete, I bet you know some good ones!
