Evening all...........this was RR'd earlier what do you think ?

For those those that missed it..................

The kids filed back into class Monday morning They were very excited. Their weekend assignment was to sell something, then give a talk on productive salesmanship.

Little Sally led off: "I sold girl scout cookies and I made £30," she said proudly, "My sales approach was to appeal to the customer's civil spirit and I credit that approach for my obvious success."

"Very good," said the teacher.

Little Jenny was next:

"I sold magazines," she said, "I made £45 and I explained to everyone that magazines would keep them up on current events."

"Very good, Jenny," said the teacher..

Eventually, it was Little Johnny's turn.

The teacher held her breath ...

Little Johnny walked to the front of the classroom and dumped a box full of cash on the teacher's desk. "£2,467," he said.

"£2,467!" cried the teacher, "What in the world were you selling?"

"Toothbrushes," said Little Johnny.

"Toothbrushes!" echoed the teacher, "How could you possibly sell enough tooth brushes to make that much money?"

"I found the busiest corner in town," said Little Johnny, "I set up a Dip & Chip stand and gave everybody who walked by a free sample."

They all said the same thing, "Hey, this tastes like dog poop!"

Then I would say, "It is dog poop. Wanna buy a toothbrush?"

"I used the government's strategy of giving you something shitty for free, and then making you pay to get that taste out of your mouth."

ooooooooooooh po****p

I waited all day, deliberately avoided the news, so I could watch the match on S4C (Wales' Channel 4) as they only showed the match live on Sky Sports Red Button (can't record on that), and I had the school run to do...

..They only showed the highlights, in Welsh (I'm not 1st language Welsh, although understand quite a bit- it's too fast on Rugby to keep up) and they left out all the conversions, didn't say who scored the tries or anything! AND NOW I'VE GOT TO DO A BLOG- NOT AMUSED! :-| :-| :-| :-| :-|

AND TO TOP IT ALL OFF....WALES LOST (and I realised that I hadn't changed and I was still wearing .....YES you heard right....GREEN :-0 :-0 :-0 :-0)
