...and the winner is: "Working at the Jobcentre has to be a tense job - knowing that if you get fired, you still have to come in the next day."
runners up:
"I had a job drilling holes for water - it was well boring" - Leo Kearse "I took out a loan to pay for an exorcism. If I don't pay it back, I'm going to get repossessed" - Olaf Falafel "In my last relationship, I hated being treated like a piece of meat. She was a vegan and refused to touch me" - Daniel Audritt "What do colour blind people do when they are told to eat their greens?" - Flo and Joan "I've got a new job collecting all the jumpers left in the park at the weekends, but it's not easy. They keep moving the goalposts" - Darren Walsh "Trump said he'd build a wall but he hasn't even picked up a brick. He's just another middle-aged man failing on a DIY project" - Justin Moorhouse "I lost a friend after we had an argument about the Tardis. I thought it was a little thing, but it seemed much bigger once we got into it" - Adele Cliff "Why are they calling it Brexit and not The Great British Break Off?" - Alex Edelman "I think love is like central heating. You turn it on before guests arrive and pretend it's like this all the time" - Laura Lexx
The only one that actually made me laugh was : "I've got a new job collecting all the jumpers left in the park at the weekends, but it's not easy. They keep moving the goalposts" - Darren Walsh

Some not bad ones there, but none can beat ...

Old one, the exorcism one. Surprised it wasn't kicked out. The rest? Mediocre.

Like the goal post gag, and the Tardis one is good too, rest is more Christmas cracker stuff.

A couple of chuckles there but no rip-snorters. They all seem a little over-worked. Quite like the tardis one.
In other news: I got married this morning. 26 years after she first marked my card. I think she's earned her spurs.

Sitting in the sun in dowmtown Brighton. I suspect it's about to get messy. It's only the two of us and our witnesses.

Many congratulations, pk. I'm tempted to say, "She'll make an honest man of you yet", but no - I'll leave that up to others. Very best wishes.

Far out man! You suddenly seem human. I wish the pair of you (and your kids) all the best. Wow. Me and Mrs Ootlg have been married a long time; loved every bit of it, even the rucks.
I'm going to go and crack a bottle of champers now. Excellent.

Congratulations, baloo. After 26 years there should be no surprises (fingers crossed).
None of those jokes made me laugh. Here are some better ones:
To the person who stole my anti-depressants: I hope you're happy now!
Went to a zoo the other day that only had a dog. It was a shitzu. There was one other cage with a baguette in it. It was bread in captivity.
I have a fear of elevators but am taking steps to avoid them.
