A Russian goes into a car showroom in Moscow and peruses the cars before choosing one.
Hw calls the salesman over and says, "I'll have one of those, please."
The salesman says, "Certainly but the bad news is that there is a 190 year waiting list."
The Russian thinks for a few moments then says, "That's OK, I'll still have one" and pays the deposit.
As he is leaving he turns to the salesman and asks, "Will it be delivered in the morning or afternoon?"
The salesman says, "Does it really matter as it's 10 years away."
The Russian says, "Well it's just that I have the plumber calling in the morning."

I was going to post this in "Where I Get Skirts" but, it is a bit of a 'cheeky' response....

My mum used to try this, but she couldn't always remember just at that moment which of us brothers had which middle names!

Spotted, this notice at the rear entrance to an olde Englishe Pub in deepest Wiltshire. Would-be back door intruders take note!

One thing that's easy to find in rural England is an old pub where delicious lunches are served.

Is it because they are out of context or not being delivered by a comedian on stage? I heard the winner delivered by the News at lunchtime, and have just read all these now, I haven't found any of them even slightly amusing. Or is that just an indicator of the state of my mind at the moment?

Context, B&B, context. In the middle of a run of gags and a pint or two in you ( or not in your case ) and they would sound funny. But then humour ain't what it used to be. The great master Ronnie Barker was in a class of his own with these types of jokes. But then his mastery of language was genius.

B&B .... maybe number 10 applies!

I agree number 1 really needs the delivery, and most of the others have a decent concept but not the polish needed to flow smoothly.

Some of them are a bit of a groan type joke, but that is also part of the comedian act.

I kind of like them all to an extent, maybe says more about me than you? :lol:

Must admit, I used to really like Tim Vine, we went to see him at the Edinburgh Fringe, ended up in a lot of pain from laughing. He is so quick that neither of us could remember any of his jokes, but he was so funny. there are a few comedians these days who are excellent with one liners, I see what you mean about these jokes being totally out of context, maybe true, but they still don't work for me and I am a bit baffled that they are the best of the fringe.
