Rain

It's only a five minute walk to the tram for me in the morning. Yet today I was absolutely soaked to the skin. The rain was torrential and unrelenting, until I got to the tram platform of course, when it stopped. Normally I hate getting wet on the way to work. I don't mind geting soaked on the way home, as you know you can soon get changed. Sitting at your desk with wringing wet clothes is not particularly pleasant. Today though I didn't mind. It was almost as though the rain washed my dour mood away. To celebrate here's a bad joke: An Irishman goes to the Doctor with botty problems.... "Dactor, it's me ahrse. I'd loik ya ta teyhk a look, if ya woot". So the doctor gets him to drop his pants and takes a look. "Incredible"he says, "there is a £20 note lodged up here." Tentatively he eases the twenty out of the man's bottom, and then a £10 pound note appears. "This is amazing!"exclaims the Doctor. ''What do you want me to do?" "Well fur gadness sake teyhk it out, man!"shrieks the patient. The doctor pulls out the tenner and another twenty appears, and another and another and another, etc.... Finally the last note comes out and no more appear. "Ah Dactor, tank ya koindly, dat's moch batt er. Just out of > interest, How moch was in dare den?" The Doctor counts the pile of cash. "£1,990 exactly." "Ah, dat'd be roit,''says the Irishman Wait for it........... I knew I wasn't feeling two grand.."
