Based on very old joke theme. Being a Brit - I have '' borrowed '' the joke!


YES I READ THE PAPERS

Yes I get the papers , local and national
Now most - well like - like most blokes do!
Turn to the back pages - sport and that
Me? Na!
I turn to the obituary's
Look fore '' W''
Dont find my name
Then I know I am not dead yet- still a live and kicking!

You would get a shock if you found your name there :) But don't believe the papers anyway.

I don't read the obituaries, but I read aout the people who are celebrating their 90th, 100th birthdays. There's still time.

This I fully understand, Ken. I read the first page then immediately turn to the "obits" to look for old friends and hopefully not my name :-))
