Britain has won a gold medal in the Olympics for white water rafting.

Two athletes from Cornwall won it in a transit van.





(Sorry if it's SIWW - MattW's had all day to post this so i'm going to)

 

lmao, very good

 

Tsk Tsk

 

An oldie:



A man is out shopping and discovers a new brand: "Olympic Condoms." Impressed, he buys a pack.

Upon arriving home he announces to his wife the purchase he just made. "Olympic condoms?" she blurts. "What makes them so special?"

"They're in three colors," he replies, "gold, silver, and bronze."

"What color are you planning on wearing tonight?" she asks cheekily.

"Why, gold, of course," says the man proudly.

"Really?" she responds. "Why don't you wear the silver tonight? It'd be nice if you came second for a change."

 

And Shirley Robertson wins our first gold medal. What a coincidence - a sport in the UK that has more than adequate funding producing the goods yet again. Maybe, if the rest of the Olympic team had similar levels of funding we might make a decent impression instead of fairly average performances.

Why is it that successive governments fail to fund British sport adequately?

Gold

 

Iwan,

Don't think you would have cracked that one if you were caught up in the Boscastle affair, and maybe even lost your car or your home.

Cheap effort and not even amusing!

Bet you complained about all the 9/11 jokes as well.

Probably, I dont think its clever to make jokes out of people's major misfortunes. Do you?

Les

 

I think most jokes are based on peoples problems in life and there country of origin / race - so yes I find it funny, same as some scotland england ireland jokes, guy slipping on a banana in the street, clowns etc etc.

 

Yes.

It's a joke FFS, get a sense of humour.

 

Iwan

I bet your the kind of guy that gets pissed and doesn't answer his on call phone.

I have edited my previous reply.

 

 

Yes - i am clearly one sick individual.

 

Why, guilty concience?

Wuss

 

Muppetty Muppetty Muppetty.....

Iwan told me this one yesterday:


How does a poof fake an orgasm?
Throw a tub of warm yoghurt over your back!

 

But you've been using that move for years????

 

**** off

 

Nobody died in a white tranny van in Boscastle, it's not even a mildly sick joke ffs! I bet this joke is being told in Cornwall as we speak.

Iwan, thank you for your posting

 

I am surprised that you can't understand how offensive it is to make cheap jokes out of a disaster. It really is a particularly thoughtless thing to do.

I wonder if you bothered to look at the pictures of the Boscastle floods. Even if no one was killed, the villagers have lost their houses and their livelihoods and are forced to live in temporary accomodation for the foreseeable future. Many locals and holiday makers lost their cars and their possessions. Can't you imagine how those people feel?

Making cheap jokes at their expense is a selfish exercise. None of the excuses given are valid and do not justify what is a pretty shameful act. Try putting yourself in the position of those people and see whether you would enjoy it, if you can that is.

No one in the West Country is regarding it as a joke.
