Zummertor Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 A young girl from Donegal leaves home to find work in the bright lights of London. She comes home 6 months later and steps out of a taxi wearing a full-length mink coat. "Begorrah, Colleen," says her mother. "Tis a lovely soft coat yer wearin' an' it looks so expensive. Where did ye get that?" Colleen replies, "Sure now, I won it at the bingo. Don't they have wonderful prizes in London." When the weekend's over, Colleen returns to the bright lights, but she's back to visit her mom a few months later. This time, when she steps out of the taxi, she's wearing a beautiful gold wristwatch and a large diamond ring. Same exchange with Mom............same "Won it at bingo!" Then Colleen returns to the bright lights again. A few months later, she's back again. And this time she's sporting a beautiful emerald diamond necklace with matching bracelet and earrings. She hands her mother 1,000 pounds and explains that she won it all in bingo. Then she asks Mom to run her a bath as she need to freshen up. Her Mom draws the bath while Colleen gets undressed in her bedroom, but when she gets to the washroom, there's only a quarter inch of hot water in the bathtub. Colleen, a wee bit peeved at her Mom being so cheap with the hot water after being handed 1,000 pounds, calls downstairs, "Mom! Sure now didn't I ask you to run me a bath? There's only a quarter inch of water in the tub!" "Indade there is, me darlin" replies her Mom."But we don't want ye gettin' yer bingo card wet now, do we?" Quote

choptop Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 Hi, Tell the joke to your other half. I am sure she will explain. Quote
Zedrush Posted April 28, 2008 Posted April 28, 2008 what on earth is a bingo card i tried googling it but nothing Quote
Stew Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 ha ha! Never heard it referred to a bingo card but funny all the same! Quote
Ebized Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Don't upset Louis anymore - he's already on a downer as his month of fame is nearly up (his calendar pic for those too mean not to have bought one ) Quote
Ebized Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 A clue - have you not heard about the pimp deciding what to call his latest and really hot new recruit? He then says "POLO"! And when asked by the girl why, he says "because we will make a mint out of your hole" Quote
Zummertor Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 It is all in the setup and isn't a "Bingo Card" per se. The daughter is clearly ...and thinks she is ... as stupid as children think. Mum understands ... doesn't get wet ... A little edit as suggested Quote
Zummertor Posted April 29, 2008 Author Posted April 29, 2008 They are never funny when you explain them! I agree, but what can you do ? I did enjoy the exchange of comments though, very funny. Quote
AndySpak Posted April 29, 2008 Posted April 29, 2008 Why did you do that Zummertor? I was enjoying them not knowing Quote
