Spring cleaning.

Bob was helping his wife, Hilary, spring clean the house. "I've swatted 5 flies, 3 were males and 2 females" said Bob, proudly. "How do you know their sex?" asked Hilary.
Bob replied " The males were on my beer cans and the other two were on the 'phone".

TOMMY COOPER LIVES!!

I went to buy some camouflage trousers the other day, but I couldn't find any.

I bought some HP sauce the other day, 10p deposit and 6p a week for 12 months.

I went to the butcher's the other day and bet him £50 he couldn't get the meat off the top shelf. He said "The steaks are too high".

A man came around after a serious road accident, he said "Doctor, I can't feel my legs!", "I know", the doctor said, "I've cut your arms off, by the way, can I buy your gloves?"

The police found our ice cream man dead in his van, covered in cream, Cadbury's flakes and hundreds and thousands ~ they reckon he'd topped himself.

Thankyou Bob Jenkins, old chap!

Clive and Steve's charity walk.

Clive and Steve did their charity work by entering "Walk the Wight" May 2008. It proved a mile too far by the looks of it.

Is it the world's worst joke?

About Me

My photo
My first 21 years were in BRISTOL, Monks Park until I was 18, 3 years at Redland Teacher Training College then off to the bright lights of London for 10 years. Living in Horfield from the early 50s my dad took me to Eastville to watch the Rovers regularly, the first team mainly but often to see the reserves as well. I joined the supporters' club in the mid 60s and was membership secretary of the junior club, eventually taking over as chairman after the famous Gordon J Bennett left. In 1969 I moved to SE London to start my teaching career.I taught at Crown Woods, Eltham and Thomas Tallis in SE London and the next 27 years at Lake Middle School on the Isle of Wight. My main subject was mathematics and I taught a lot of PE concentrating mainly on football. Whilst in London I played football for Ramsgate, Faversham Town, Carshalton Athletic and Corinthian Casuals. My wife bought a half share in STROLLERS beach cafe in 2006 and I spend a lot of time with the customers. Viewing some of the pictures on this site will give you an idea of how I spend my leisure time.
