    That's a good one!

    'Enter the past tense' by Roland Haas is worth a read. He was a secret CIA assassin...mint book.

    Reading Tommy cooper biography, most naturally funny comedian/magician theres ever been:lol:

    "sometimes i drink my whiskey neat, other times i take my tie off, and leave my shirt hanging out"

    "walked up to the ice cream van, wife asks what can i get you, i said a large cone please, she says hundreds & thousands?i said no, one will do very nicely"

    "I went to the doctors the other day and I said, 'have you got anything for wind' , so he gave me a kite"

    "Went to the paper shop - it had blown away"

    Legend Tommy Cooper. Remember this one:

    ''I went to the doctors the other day & he said how can I help. I said 'Doctor, I feel like a moth'. He replied well why have you come here then. He said because the light was on.''

    So basic but funny as fuck, I might get that book next actually

    simple jokes but you've got to have a chuckle like!

    So I was in my car, and I was driving along, and my boss rang up, and he said, "You've been promoted". And I swerved.
    And then he rang up a second time and said "You've been promoted again".
    And I swerved again. He rang up a third time and said, "You're managing director".
    And I went into a tree. And a policeman came up and said, "What happened to you?"
    And I said, "I careered off the road".

    :lol:

    Finally got round to reading the dark materials trilogy by Philip Pullman (Amber Spyglass etc).

    I know they're childrens books and everything, but they've been the first that I couldn't put down for a while.

    That guy has an incredible imagination.
