The women, aged 41 and 66, are said to have protested that the lifeless pensioner was merely asleep

Something is wrong here. War, disease, death, destruction, hunger, filth, poverty, torture, crime, corruption, and the Ice Capades. Something is definitely wrong. This is not good work. If this is the best God can do, I am not impressed.

I wasn't aware that you people had had that one. Have you ever seen Tony Hancock's 'The Blood Donor?'

Re: Silly season?
Humour is a personal thing of course but some things are universal and this, IMO, is the funniest sketch ever.
As part of my recuperation after my cancer I have to have regular blood tests, and it seems that every patient and every phlebotmist, of any age, knows this sketch over here. I'll see if I can find it for you.
Just checked Min. Google, hancock the blood donor, it's on you tube in two parts.
And I'll guess that you have met a number of 'Anthony Aloysios St John Hancock the Third' types as well.
