<HTML>The story goes that after the General Election of 1979, the leader of the winning Tory party, a certain Mrs. M. Thatcher, went to Buckingham Palace to be officially sworn in (and not at, as was often the case).

Thatch curtseyed to her Maj, and said;

"May I humbly petition Your Gracious Majesty to appoint me as your loyal Prime Minister and First Lord of the Treasury?"

Liz gave a big sigh of relief, and replied

"Thank God for that, I thought you were after my job!"

I am NOT a young lady. Despite my mother's best efforts, all that can be said for me is I am a not-yet-older woman.

<HTML>A man buys a hamster, by the next day it's dead. He takes it back to the pet shop and demands his money back.

The shop keeper gives him a refund but suggest that instead of burying Hammy he should make jam with the little fellow, he gives him the recipe and bids him good day.

The man makes the jam as instructed but when he tastes it, it's vile, he empties it on the garden and goes about his business.

Next morning while looking at the spot where the jam landed a beautiful rose bush has sprung up with the most dazzling blooms he's ever seen.

He runs to the pet shop and tells the propietor what happened.
'That's funny he replied, I thought you only got tulips from hamster jam'

<HTML>The squid silly.

Come on, we've given you enough bits now to cobble together a punch line.
Especially given it's the 'Fairy Liquid' joke.

What did the fisherman say he'd caught ?

I'm off home now so will leave you to sweat it out overnight unless
Ooktavia's kind to you. (Ook: I wouldn't, if I were you.)</HTML>

<HTML>Right, that's it. If we're telling jokes that bad, i have no option other than to tell the Famous French Fighter Pilot joke.....

(For added accuracy, imagine me doing the actions, in a pub in Bristol, in a dodgy French accent, with Bea trying very hard not to choke to death)

Pierre (ze bravest, ze most magnificent, ze best endowed member of ze French airforce), has gone for a picnic, avec his latest conquest - Michelle.

Michelle has been overwhelmed by this magnificent gesture, and she cannot help herself - "Ooh, Pierre, you are so romantique. Kiss me on ze lips"

And Pierre, desperate to perform, grabs Michelle wildly, and moves to kiss her. Grabbing her by the waist he swings her round as moves to kiss her like she's never been kissed before. And as their lips move together, he stops.

"Michelle, zer is something I must do."

"Ooh, Pierre? What can stop zis moment of passion?"

Before she gets her reply, Pirre reaches over, rips the cork off a bottle of red with his teeth, splashes it over the poor girls lips, and gets stuck in.

After they come up for air, Michelle says: "Ooh, ooh, Pierre. Zat was so romantic. But why ze red wine?"

"I am Pierre, ze famous French fighter pilot - when I have ze red meat, I drink ze red wine."

"Ooh la la, Pierre, kiss me lower..."

Just like before, the randy pilot reaches over to the hamper, rips the cork out of a bottle - although this time it's white. After splashing it over her tits, he gets stuck into her breasts...

"Ooh, Ooh, Pierre, your tongue is so good, but why ze white wine?"

"I am Pierre, ze greatest fighter pilot in France. When Pierre has white meat, he must have ze white wine..."

"Ooh, Pierre, kiss me lower still.."

Pierre reaches over to the hamper and produces a bottle of Cognac. He rips the French maiden's knickers off with his teeth. He splashes the brandy all over her most delicate areas....

And produces a lighter and sets fire to the Cognac....

"Ow! Ow! Pierre!" says Michelle as she tries to beat the flames out... "What ze bloody hell are you doing?"

"I am Pierre, ze famous French fighter pilot extraordinaire - and when I go down - I go down in flames!"</HTML>
