Something to raise a smile


here's a little skit by Ronnie Barker, a man that has so far never failed to cheer me up.This is taken from the heady days of the Two Ronnies.HUMPHREY AND GODFREY (1)RB (Ronnie Barker) and RC (Ronnie Corbett) are sat in armchairs in their London club.RC; I say, Godfrey.RB: What is it, Humphrey?RC: How's your headache?RB; She's out playing bridge.RC: Come now Godfrey, you shouldn't talk about the old girl like that you know. Love makes the world go round.RB: So does a punch on the nose, old lad. No, I've had bad luck with both my wives. The first divorced me and the second one won't.RC; It was a case of love at first sight with me.RB; Then why didn't you marry her?RC: I saw her again on several occasions. RB: So you married someone else?RC; yes, she's very slow.RB: Slow? What at?RC:Everything. It takes her a day to make instant coffee. Trouble is I'm hen pecked.RB: Oh! Mustn't be, old lad! Stand up to her. Show her who's boss.RC; I'm going to. I've made up my mind I'm going to pluck up the courage and tell her something I've been wanting to tell her for ages.RB: What's that?RC: I need a new apron!*****
