Funnies

For the third time that week, Ben had been late home
from work and his wife was sick and tired of reheating
his food.
“Next time this happens,” she threatened, “your dinner
will be in the bin and the bed will be made up in the
spare room.”
“Don’t worry darling,” he promised, “nothing will stop
me from getting home on time tonight.”
True to his word, Ben left work 10 minutes early to
make sure he caught the train but alas, as he was
crossing the road, a double-decker bus swerved
around the corner and knocked him to the ground.
Fortunately, he only had cuts and bruises but he was
taken to hospital for a check up and eventually arrived
home three hours late.
“So much for promises!” yelled the wife. “You’ve done
it this time.”
“It wasn’t my fault! I got hit by a bus!” replied Ben.
“Oh yeah!” she replied scornfully, “and that took three
hours, did it?”
