I was just looking through my emails and found this old (not really that old) joke someone had sent me and had another good laugh at it, so thought I'd share it with all of you. I did a search but came up with nothing so I apologise if its been posted before, But even if it has I'm sure there's many who haven't seen it and will never search for something so obscure so this is for these people.
Well enough of that crap (disclaimer).
