Uncle Albert

A friend of mine went to buy some long underwear. The shopkeeper asked him, 'How long do you want it?' And my friend said, 'Well, from about September to March'.

Reminds me of a guy I know who got a nice cushy job in a watch factory.

Uncle Albert

What does he do?

He stands about all day and makes faces.

Uncle Albert

Ha ha ha. He makes faces in a watch factory.

Speaking of names, I know a man with a wooden leg named Smith.

Uncle Albert

What's the name of his other leg?

Uncle Albert, I got a jolly joke I save for just such an occasion. Would you like to hear it?

Uncle Albert

I'd be so grateful.

Well it's about me granddad, see, and one night he had a nightmare. So bad, he chewed his pillow to bits. To bits. The next morning, I says, "How do you feel, Granddad?" He says, "Oh not bad, a little down in the mouth."

[Bert and Uncle Albert are laughing at Uncle Albert's tea-party]

I always say there's nothing like a good joke.

Uncle Albert

And that was nothing like a good joke.
