Letdown for tooth professional
Paul from Tauranga writes: "My dentist, being a keen observer of the human condition, was telling me that in a few idle moments he chose to browse the lonely hearts classifieds. He was mightily impressed to see how many people looking for love emphasised in their ad that they observed a Good Standard of Oral Hygiene. Crushed was the only suitable word when someone explained to him that GSOH actually stands for Good Sense Of Humour."
A christmas message.
Lambing technique to the rescue
Great yarn from the letters to the editor in the UK Times newspaper: Anita Menzies was reminded of an event in the late 70s, "when an infant fell into a neighbour's garden pond. On hearing screams followed by pleas for help, I and an elderly neighbour dropped our gardening tools, and struggled over the hedges and fence that separated us from the commotion. The 3-year-old girl was at the bottom of the pond; I jumped in, pulled her out and passed her lifeless body to my neighbour. He laid her down, got hold of her ankles and lifted her up, in a lunatic fashion, to swing her around his head. Horrified and paralysed, the child's mother and I watched as, moments later, water poured from the child's mouth and nose, and she gave a loud cry. I asked my neighbour where he'd learned to do such a thing. He said he'd been a shepherd for 30-odd years, and when lambs were born "dead" it was the standard way of making them breathe and ridding them of any birth debris. But for that old shepherd Aaron, that child would not be alive today."
