There was this old boy who had sixpence to go out with,
He gets the bus into town and pays a penny for his fare,
when he gets there he buys 5 fags a box of matches and a paper for 3pennys
He goes to the pictures for a penny, then buys a penny's worth of chips,
then he gets the bus home again, what does he say to the conductor when asked for his fare?????
Remember he has spent the sixpence

They find a hens nest with four eggs in it.
They each decide to take one.
When they leave, there is still one egg left.
Why?.


So the Afghan minicab driver can hatch some food? :wink:

Brother and sister I have none
But that man there is
My father's son. .....................


Explain!

One fine day
in the middle ofthe night
Two dead men got up to fight
back to back they faced each other
drew their swords and
shot each other!

Your optomistic? :wink:

I remember watching the last coal trains from the Lady Vic going through Eskbank, Will trains ever pass through there again?
I know a few Midlothian drivers that hope they will.

. . . . . and a few Gala property owners that do to.
