A Brit mutt myself. Love the Canadian and Autralian sense of humour, grown from the dry Brit. Enjoyed dear Jack, good morning! xomo

Can't see it my friend. Jack went up the hill and found Jill. He said: "Hey won't ya give me a thrill." She said: " Close ya eyes." "It's a surprise." Ran down the hill,left him standing still!

No no no!!! Say it isn't so!!! British humour can't be topped! For some reason, my Benny Hill post got sidetracked but is now up and running! Wouldn't want you to miss it!!!
