Turn Back The Clock

Or is it forward? Thinks...fall forward, springbok. Right. So let's have an old joke.

A patient is lying in his hospital bed wearing an oxygen mask. When the nurse comes in, he waves her over and mumbles something. She gives him a funny look, but obediently pulls down the bedclothes, undoes his jammy bottoms and takes a look. "No, they look a perfectly normal shade of pink."

He pulls off the mask in exasperation and says, "No, nurse, what I wanted to know was if you could see if my test results are back!"

Fall back, Spring forward. I like the sound of that. Hopefully winter will sod off!

Sorry for the deleted post above, I was accidentally leaving comments under Peter's name. Ha!

But as I was saying...

They are supposed to be pink?

John - Oh, winter's long gone now; it must be, cos it's British Summer Time! Hurrah!

Think I'll keep wearing the winter coat for a couple more months, just in case.

Jacki - *checks* Yup!
