Once In A Blue Moon – It’s Time To Celebrate!

This is the moment today that Manchester City won the FA Cup Final.

Excuse the blurring: my hand was shaking with nerves.

The Hub was so excited, he almost stood up.

Thirty-five years since we last had any silver to polish – no wonder we enjoyed it.

Blue are Britain’s entry tonight: that’s got to be a good omen.  I’m off to watch Eurovision!

Joke 51

I’ve heard this one before and it’s one of my favourites.  It’s worth sharing in case some of you have missed it.  Thanks to Sarsm for sending it.

A man and his wife were having some problems at home and were giving each other the silent treatment.  Suddenly, the man realized that the next day he would need his wife to wake him at 5:00 AM for an early morning business flight.

Not wanting to be the first to break the silence (and lose), he wrote on a piece of paper, “Please wake me at 5:00 AM.” He left it where he knew she would find it.

The next morning, the man woke up, only to discover it was 9:00 a.m. and he had missed his flight.  Furious, he was about to go and see why his wife hadn’t woken him, when he noticed a piece of paper by the bed.

The paper said, “It is 5:00 a.m.  Wake up.”

Men are not equipped for these kinds of contests.
