Lighten up time.

A Guess the punchline game. Post your joke here and leave off the punchline. Other FM's have to guess what it is. The one who guesses first, then posts his/her joke with the punchline missing.

Jokes can be short or long, clever or crap (like mine) it doesn't matter.

I'll start with a long crappy one - the punchline of which will make you groan:

The United Nations are having a new multi-million pound extension built to their headquarters in Geneva. Under UN rules at least two Senior Civil Servants must be on site at all times to oversee its progress.

Three Senior Civil Servants are selected – Herr Manfred Bockenfeldt from Munich, Germany, Ringo Smith from Liverpool, England, and Senor Manuel Erozzes from Pamplona Spain.

All three are on site and it starts to lash it down with rain. It rains for several days and all three get soaked. Senor Erozzes catches a cold and starts violently sneezing. His cold gets steadily worse, until at the weekend, he tells the other two that he’s going back to his hotel because he can’t stop sneezing and coughing. He tells them to telephone him if there are any problems.

The next day Smith and Bockenfeldt start coughing and sneezing because they too have caught the cold.

Smith turns to Bockenfeldt and suggests that they should go back to the hotel as well, because they’re both ill and – anyway – nobody will know, but the German is a stickler for obeying orders, and strongly objects to this suggestion – reminding Smith that under UN rules, two Senior Civil Servants must be on site at all times.

Smith wants to get out of the rain, so a furious argument breaks out between the two, and Smith suggests telephoning the Spaniard for his views. So................................................ ............?.
