Yoghurt is good for thrush, my friend told her aging mother.
Next week: That yoghurt didn't do anything for my thrush, dear.
That's a shame Mum. How much did you eat?
Eat? - came the reply
I thought you rubbed it in - boom, boom!!!

My Aunts best mates daughter used to be a dental nurse in her teens.

One day a patient came in an the dentist told Debbie...or so she thought, that the woman's name was moote. Being a foreign patient Deb thought no more.

Seating the patient in the chair Debbie tried to put her at ease.

"Just lay down there Moote, we wont be long now"

Poor woman must be scared, she thought, as the woman diddnt reply.

The dentist came in Deb explained that Moote was feeling nervous.

Quickly he ushered Deb from the room & with laughter in his eyes, explained Moote was not her name.but she was a deaf mute. (not the politically correct term used nowadays)

Well they had to go back to face this poor unsuspecting woman. Deb got the giggles and kept on having to pretend to pick something up from the floor to hide her laughter.

I know when the story was being brilliantly told (with actions) from Debs mum, we were all in fits !

I lost my marbles on Saturday

Was in Jenny's cafe with Connie when 2 teenagers ('oooodies) came in and sat further down the almost empty cafe.

I suddenly heard in the distance a phone ringing.

I turned to Connie & said "Listen, how funny they have the same ring tone as me ! "

I have Banana phone song copied from facebook on mine.

A while later |I heard it go off again, I started to feel cross. The whole tune was being played and they were smirking. It was now getting annoying.

It went off a further two times.

After our food I got out my phone in my coat pocket to ring for him indoors to pick me up

you've guessed it !...it was my phone ringing all the time, muffled in a padded pocket !

I diddnt half feel a wally !

It wasn't until late Friday, having said Good morning to everyone at two in the afternoon,in the village, that I found the Friday local paper on sale.{Funny I thought that's out early}
I had woken up on Thursday only to find I'd lost a day, still haven't caught up yet.

ok will add just one......

We was on holiday a few yrs back, staying in a static caravan and i went down to the shop for bread milk etc. Came back and entered by back door of caravan, to find all these strange people looking at me!!!! Ours was next one along, and they had very similar car to ours, which in my daydream i had mistaken for ours, and of course the vans were identical. In my defence we had only been there about hour, so hadn't got my bearing!!!! Kids and OH rolled up laughing when i told them!!!

my sister went into a department store to buy a new light pull for her bathroom. First she bought the bottom piece and asked the assistant where she could find the cord. The assistant said "Downstairs by the meter" Sister says - "Well that's a stupid thing to say, d'you mean, electric meter, gas meter or water meter - how will I know which meter" Assistant said scathingly "By the metre - measurement metre" Doh!!

In the pouring rain, having decided on a taxi, I jumped into the passenger seat of a car and demanded to be taken home. The man was most suprised, as he had come to collect his wife, it's at time like that a suitable stone is required to crawl under.!

Not in public!
My Mum had a new orange Volkwagon beetle, took herself to Brent Cross shopping centre. After several hours shopping she went back to the car.....cars she could'nt remember the number, her key worked in at least ten similar orange beetles. She eventually found hers parked diagonally across 2 spaces with the seat belt dangling down. Wonder where I get it from ?
