HUMOUR, said to be true.
by joebangles @ 13/01/2008 - 13:25:23

I posted this a long time ago, I don't think that I had any friends then, it can still make me smile.

"Hello, Directory Enquiries".

Caller, "I'd like the number for the Argoed Fish Bar in Cardiff please".

Operator, "Sorry, there is no listing, is the spelling correct?".

Caller, "Well, it used to be called The Bargoed Fish Bar but the "B" fell off".

=====================================
Customer, "I've been ringing 0700 2300 for two days and can't get through, can you help?£.

Operator, "Where did you get that number from , sir?".

Customer, "It was on the door to the Travel Centre".

Operator, "Sir, they are the opening hours".

================================
Caller, "Can you give me the telephone number for Jack?"

Operator, "I'm sorry sir, I don't understand who you are talking about"

Caller, "On page 1, section 5, of your user guide it clearly states that I need to unplug the fax machine from the AC wall socket and telephone Jack before cleaning. Now, can you give me the number for Jack?".

Operator, "I think it means the telephone point on the wall".

I would guess these are all true. When I was a legal adviser at the RAC I took many daft calls, some much dafter than these.

Yes Sal, I have seen stories of questions to motorist associations, makes you wonder just how many idiots are driving about on our roads.

Yes Col, some of the old ones need re-circulating every now and then, they do remain funny, new friends may not have seen them, and a laugh a day....

You do get some silly callers ringing up. I can't imagine you having no friends though Trevor

I love the fish bar one, I tell it at every opportunity and still laugh at my own joke before I get to the punch line.

I didn't mean friends, I meant, virtual friends, here on this site, I had only joined a week or two earlier.

Reminded me of the words from a Frankie Laine song,

"Oh, little children, friends are all around,
Flying in the Heavens,
And walking on the ground"

Haven't heard it for 50 years.

Some people are completely mad it seems! Had a look at your potatoe pics. Did you use photoshop to make them funny like that. my hubby has done something brilliant with one of his photos. Will have to blog it...you'll love it.
