Just got back from holiday & there was chaos at Heathrow.
I waited so long for my suitcase, I fainted onto the luggage carousel.
But I eventually came round again.
Went to a friend's wedding, and I was asked to say a few words.
Didn't know what to say, so I just said, "Bargain."
Afterwards, he came up to me & said, "Thanks - that meant a lot to me."
And a new feature: On This Day in History.
On June 29th, 1972, Slade were top of the pops, with "Take Me Back Home."
The England World Cup song.....or maybe not
When I was a kid, we were so poor, my mum used to get all my clothes from the Army & Navy.
It was so humiliating, going to school in the full dress uniform of a Japanese admiral.
On This Day In History:
In 1961, Del Shannon was top of the charts, with "Runaway."
Since Boris resigned, I've been deluged with emails, letters, phone calls.......
hundreds of them; well, dozens (you've done this to death already - ed.)
OK, to be honest, none. But they all said the same thing -
"Why don't you run for PM, Steve?"
Well, I'd love to.
I know I'd make a good one.
But there's just one small problem.....
I'm not a member of the Tory Party.
But I'd be happy to serve in some other capacity - say Minister of Mirth.
And here, to launch my campaign, is this ribbed tickler fresh from The Tony Blackburn Show*
I had dinner with a group of electricians;
they skipped the starter & went straight to the mains.
Vote for me!!
* - he ripped of yet another of my jokes on this morning's show -
the one about an insomniac sleeping on the edge of the bed & dropping off.
I'm sure he reads this thread......
