The things they say....

[pjholybloke]

During the early stages of my relationship with the now Mrs Holybloke (my second marriage), she took her 6yr old son to his school fair.

He decided to have his face painted, and being an outgoing little fella, he soon struck up a rapport with the makeup artist as his doting mother looked on.

Before long he was waxing lyrical about his bionical collection, and how difficult they were to build. He went on to add that he was lucky that Phil (self) was good at building, and was happy to help out.

"Is Phil your brother?" enquired makeup artist.

"No" answered little blighter "He's mom's friend, he comes round our house and they kiss each other and sometimes he stays the night"

Harmless enough.

"Phil's my dad's best friend!" He addded helpfully.

He nearly had his eye put out with a makeup pencil.

Wife to be nearly fainted.

Took some explaining that one.

Totally true, and totally above board. My best mate introduced us (they were never married) and for that I will always be in his debt. That's what mates are for.

so you only get that service going private then?

No TW. I didn't say I'd gone private, I just DIDN'T SAY it was NHS! However, now that the question arises, it was and the latter part was all a dream.

There's many a true word spoken in jest.

Even hospital can be fun.

In at least one Scandinavian hospital that we know of, the caring administration of orgasm is the duty of the physiotherapist.

I work for the wrong NHS!

Paedeatricians are responsible for all the babies in the ward.

Recovering in hospital after my first heart attack a fellow patient was sitting in a chair waiting for his wife to take him home. As he said his final goodbyes he remarked that his stay had been such fun that he was looking forward to the next time. He reached the door and collapsed with another heart attack. When he came to his very first words were "Fun, I nearly died laughing".

That's far too subtle for a Monday morning.
