The wise man pondered
stroking his beard
and nodding his head.
He eventually spoke
and that's what he said:
“He who laughs last
didn't get the joke.”

Very good! I'm afraid I'm often the slow one, who ends up ruefully asking an explanation! (and then laughs) Rhiannon

When I first came to England an Italian friend of mine understood jokes in rhyming cockney slang right away whereas I was baffled.

A wry and accurate observation, Luigi. You are a wise man. Paul :)

I thought I had a good sense of humour and could deliver funny jokes but my daughters always groaned at my gags.

Cheers, Luigi

Sounds like corruption under our previous goverment – Last one in is a rotten egg!

Cheers Luigi! & Nolan

You may say that, Nolan, I can't possibly comment.

Cheers, Luigi
