Frozen cow joke

[Elaine]

During a very hard winter a farmer finds that all his cattle have frozen solid in the fields. While he's standing there thinking about how he can resolve his problem, a little old lady drives up to him in her car and asks for directions.

She sees that the farmer is a bit down and asks him what's wrong. After finding out, the old lady goes round all the fields and miraculously, as she goes past each cow, it defrosts and comes back to life.

The amazed and very grateful farmer says, 'That's incredible Miss, Mrs .....er I'm sorry, I don't even know your name.'

'Oh, i'm Thora Hird' says the old lady.

You probably wouldn't have appreciated that joke as much Eileen.......... most likely you wouldn't have known that Thora Hird was one of our great actresses/commediennes .... :D She sadly died a few years ago.....

Of course!! I totally forgot that maybe Thora Hird's legacy didn't cross the Atlantic. A uniquiely British talent :)

Thanks, Mags! Elaine, can't immediately think of a Yankee joke, so here's a jingle popular during Prohibition: Four and twenty Yankees Feeling mighty dry Went across the border To get themselves some rye When the rye was opened The Yanks began to sing God bless America, but God save the King! Oldie, but goodie, and as my Dad used to say, it isn't old if you haven't heard it...:-D

[Elaine]

Excellent, you just know I will be singing that at work tomorrow LOL. Seriously I will.

My Dad was too far away from the Canadian border, and didn't know a bootlegger, so he and a buddy made "bathtub gin".....oh, the bad old days.....:-D
