I thought this deserved better than 10th place in the top 15 funniest Fringe jokes >>>

I like that one but also smiled at 9 and 15

Some decent ones and imo better ones that didn't make the top 15....or maybe that's just my sense of humour?

Number 9 from that list  made me cry with laughter

"I wasn't particularly close to my dad before he died... which was lucky, because he trod on a land mine" - Olaf Falafel"

Also...to be honest I love Frankie Boyle. Not all of his jokes as some are pretty gruesome...but he is a funny man....if a bit sick.

So breaking news. We have sold our apartment in Spain. Sad but end of an era really. The older we get the less we can stand the heat. Also where it's situated the area is 'dying on it's feet' ....We decided (reluctantly on my part) that it was time to let it go. We have had it for 31 years and it has served us well. However, Ray popped over yesterday (for 3 days) to sign the sale details and as from September 30th it will belong to someone else.. He also needed to clear the apartment of all our personal stuff....

Just been on the phone to him checking he has done everything on the list I gave him....

Let's just say he decided some things didn't need doing.... After speaking with me...he now realises 'they do need doing'....

So where will you go for your sun top-up now that you've sold the flat in Spain?

Well if we want to go to that area again we have friends with studios or apartments...However my tolerance for that sort of heat has diminished.....I think we might look for somewhere closer to home. Never been a beach person if honest...but do like warm sunny weather. Currently the temperatures on the Costa del Sol have exceeded 40c ...Not for me now. The tolls of getting old hey?
