Grandkids Gifts!​

Two old ladies Dolly and Ruby were talking about their grandchildren.

Dolly said, "Each year I send each of my grandchildren

a card with a generous cheque inside. I never hear from them...

never receive a thank you message."

Ruby replies, "I too send my grandchildren a very generous cheque.

I hear from them within a week after they receive it.

In fact, they each pay me a personal visit."

"Wow! How come ?”remarked Dolly.

"Very simple solution... I don't sign the cheque!"

This is kind of sad but hilarious, nonetheless!

First time I've seen a joke about a cheque where it is not spelt CHECK

This is a very old oldie.

I remember back in the sixties there was a trilogy of books called the anatomy of a dirty joke,
and it is reckoned that there were only three actual jokes and all the others were a variation. If you ever come across them, they are very funny books.

When l was younger Christmas presents like this never existed & a Birthday present was a hanky in a card & we appreciated this. I was speaking to a lady today who agreed with me &, like me, still has some of those hankies but unlike her, still carry one in my pocket at all times. (some old habits never die l guess).

The Yanks typically go opposite to their former colonial masters as a sign of defiance. I groan when I see Mom instead of Mum, tire instead of tyre, cell phone instead of mobile; but worst of all is their illogical date format of MM/DD/YY

What about fries & not chips? We must fight the need to become Americanised at all costs. If we do not l feel we will lose our individuality.

During a recent Olympic Games news item with subtitles the Commentator, at a Netball practice, said thankyou for allowing me to WEAR the jacket & then THERE was mentioned. Across the screen was :- ware (for wear) & their (for there). Made me cringe to see these words spelt in this manner.
