We’ve got 2 tickets to give away to the Jimmy Carr comedy show on Thursday 25th September at The Tabernacle, from our friends at Live Nation. All you’ve got to do is tell us your favourite (short) joke, one liner or gag and whichever gets the most likes, gets the tickets. Easy.
Oh. And keep it clean

You know a Brit’s really mad when they beg your pardon, then suggest something may have escaped your attention, before apologising for being close to losing their patience. Upon reaching boiling point, there’s a chance they’ll issue the killer blow of offering you their regards.

Going for an “any time” train ticket because understanding what constitutes “off peak” requires an expert knowledge of advanced calculus, economics, law and philosophy.

In Britain, if you moan online about rubbish weather, it’s the law that someone will reply, “lovely and sunny where I am!”

I’m making my own list of text abbreviations (or initialisms) for more middle-aged, British people, like me. This is what I have so far. Hopefully they’ll catch on. Let me know what you’d add.
