    oldies but goodies (well some of them)

    I met this bloke with a didgeridoo and he was playing Dancing Queen on it.
    I thought, "That's Aboriginal."

    This lorry full of tortoises collided with a van full of terrapins. It was
    a turtle disaster.

    I told my girlfriend I had a job in a bowling alley. She said "Tenpin?" I
    said, "No, permanent."

    I went in to a pet shop. I said, "Can I buy a goldfish?" The guy said, "Do
    you want an aquarium?" I said, "I don't care what star sign it is."

    I was at a Garden Centre and I asked for something herby. They gave me a
    Volkswagen with no driver.

    I went to the local video shop and I said "Can I borrow Batman Forever?" He
    said, "No, you'll have to bring it back tomorrow"

    I went to buy a watch, and the man in the shop said "Analogue." I said "No,
    just a watch."

    I went into a shop and I said, "Can someone sell me a kettle." The bloke
    said "Kenwood" I said, "Where is he then?"

    My mate is in love with two schoolbags. He's bisatchel.

    I went to the doctor. I said to him "I'm frightened of lapels." He said,
    "You've got cholera."

    I met the bloke who invented crosswords today. I can't remember his name,
    it's P something T something R.

    I was reading this book today, The History of Glue. I couldn't put it down.

    I phoned the local ramblers club today, but the bloke who answered just
    went on and on.

    The recruitment consultant asked me "What do you think of voluntary work??
    I said "I wouldn't do it if you paid me."

    I was in the jungle and there was this monkey with a tin opener. I said,
    "You don't need a tin opener to peel a banana." He said, "No, this is for
    the custard."

    This policeman came up to me with a pencil and a piece of very thin paper.
    He said, "I want you to trace someone for me."

    I told my mum that I'd opened a theatre. She said, "Are you having me on?"
    I said, "Well I'll give you an audition, but I'm not promising you
    anything."

    I phoned the local builders today; I said to them "Can I have a skip
    outside my house?" He said, "I'm not stopping you!"

    This cowboy walks in to a German car showroom and he says "Audi!"

    I fancied a game of darts with my mate. He said, "Nearest the bull goes
    first" He went "Baah" and I went "Moo" He said "You're closest

    I was driving up the motorway and my boss phoned me and he told me I'd been promoted. I was so shocked I swerved the car. He phoned me again to say I'd been promoted even higher and I swerved again. He then made me managing director and I went right off into a tree. The police came and asked me what had happened. I said "I careered off the road"

        I have one word to offer - honesty. I couldn't be devious if I tried. Joe Fagan.

          "He said 'I'm going to chop off the bottom of one of your trouser legs and put it in a library.' I thought 'That's a turn-up for the books."

          "And the back of his anorak was leaping up and down, and people were chucking money to him. I said 'Do you earn a living doing that?' He said 'Yes, this is my livelihood.'

          "So I was getting into my car, and this bloke says to me "Can you give me a lift?" I said "Sure, you look great, the world's your oyster, go for it.'"

          "You know, somebody actually complimented me on my driving today. They left a little note on the windscreen, it said 'Parking Fine.' So that was nice."

          "So I went down my local ice-cream shop, and said 'I want to buy an ice-cream'. He said Hundreds & thousands?' I said 'We'll start with one.' He said 'Knickerbocker glory?' I said 'I do get a certain amount of freedom in these trousers, yes.'

          I went to Millets and said 'I want to buy a tent.' He said 'To camp?', I said [butchly] 'Sorry, I want to buy a tent.' I said 'I also want to buy a caravan.' He said 'Camper?' I said [campily] 'Make your mind up.'

          So I went to the dentist. He said "Say Aaah." I said "Why?" He said "My dog's died.'"

          "Now, most dentist's chairs go up and down, don't they? The one I was in went back and forwards. I thought 'This is unusual'. And the dentist said to me 'Mr Vine, get out of the filing cabinet.'"

          "So I got home, and the phone was ringing. I picked it up, and said 'Who's speaking please?' And a voice said 'You are.'"

          "So I rang up my local swimming baths. I said 'Is that the local swimming baths?' He said 'It depends where you're calling from.'"

          "So I rang up a local building firm, I said 'I want a skip outside my house.' He said 'I'm not stopping you.'

          "Apparently, 1 in 5 people in the world are Chinese. And there are 5 people in my family, so it must be one of them. It's either my mum or my dad. Or my older brother Colin. Or my younger brother Ho-Chan-Chu. But I think it's Colin."

          "So I was in my car, and I was driving along, and my boss rang up, and he said 'You've been promoted.' And I swerved. And then he rang up a second time and said "You've been promoted again.' And I swerved again. He rang up a third time and said 'You're managing director.' And I went into a tree. And a policeman came up and said 'What happened to you?' And I said 'I careered off the road.'

                  Something about Vine makes the delivery of these simple jokes work, he's made a living from it. He once hired the biggest advertising space available for the Edinburgh Festival, BIG massive poster...to announce...that he wasn't there that particular year, nutter.
