They didn't die of drink poisoning though! Maybe it was food poisoning!

Oh no - it was the demon drink for sure

There was poisoned ice added to the punch. That killed them! The ice hadn't melted when the first bloke had a drink.

OK my turn.

The priest, rabbi and vicar go fishing. When they start to eat their snap, they remember they left the salt in the car. So the priest says a prayer, jumps out of the boat and walks over the water back to the car...

Next they find they've forgotten the pepper. So the rabbi says a prayer. jumps out of the boat and walks over the water back to the car...

Next they find they've forgotten the beer. So the vicar insists on going back to the car. Says a prayer, jumps out of the boat and is up to his ears in the water.

Why?

Had the tide come in?

the Rabbi gets out the side of the boat next to some stepping stones, the vicar gets out the other side and plummets in

It must be something to do with a bridge or jetty if two of them walk 'over' the water. Maybe the vicar gets out of the boat on the wrong side.

OK - quick one to finish the night.

Cats
There was a cat called Hoovie that lived in house in Devon. There were three other cats that lived in the house - they were called Treacle, Grockle and Freckle.
What was the fourth cat called?

Freckle! If Hoovie is the first, or Hoovie if he is not added until the end!

Hoovie it is - give you that one

This is an interesting one.

I want a full answer, please

The Barbershop

A traveller arrives in a small town and decides he wants to get a haircut. According to the manager of the hotel where he's staying, there are only two barbershops in town — one on East Street and one on West Street. The traveller goes to check out both shops. The East Street barbershop is a mess, and the barber has the worst haircut the traveller has ever seen. The West Street barbershop is neat and clean; its barber's hair looks as good as a movie star's.

Which barbershop does the traveller go to for his haircut, and why?

Bludall · Post by **Bludall** » Wed Nov 21, 2007 11:12 pm

East Street barber is far too busy to clean up between clients and hasn't got enough time to get his hair cut so he cuts his own hair in the mirror.

The west side barber has no business so he can keep everything tidy because he has the time on his hands and the East Street barber cuts his hair for him.

some good thinking there - you are on the right lines, although a bit confused

And you didn't actually answer the question - which barber does the travaller go to?
