I wonder if anybody remembers this, and can tell me where it originated. I think it was back in the 70s, that Kenny Everett - perhaps - kept running a mad sound clip that ran for about 2 or 3 minutes....
I've recently been reminded of this one, partly by all the ballyhoo going on about the Russian winter olympics, and partly by seeing the latest episode of Jeremy Wade's River Monsters series on ITV2...
A man calls in the local vet to his sheep farm. "One of my sheep keeps having babies", he tells the vet, "and she seems to keep abandoning them. But it's like she's just forgotten where she's left...
I decided to come her to gather support for my very interesting and worthwhile campaign. The campaign is very simple: I want to have the word 'day' replaced by 'degg'. That way, each week would run:...
A man goes into the doctor's surgery, and says "Doctor, I'm having terrible trouble saying F's and TH's". The doctor thinks about this for a moment, then fixes the man with a wicked grin, and says...

Douglas (Noel) Adams would have chortled at that one!!!...
I've a feeling I should know what this music is, but for the life of me, I can't uncover it! Tesco have for several months been running a series of brief adverts - about 10-15 seconds - of a generic,...
I'm sick to death of buying gas wands to light the oven. They work fine for as long as the factory-filled gas lasts - but every time it runs out, I try to refill the damn things with gas from one of...
