A pudding.If all the world was apple pie and all the sea was ink and all the earth was bread and cheese what would we have to drink?
Apple juice.I went to the wood for timber I got it and didnt look for it when I came home I had it and I could not find it?
A thorn in my finger.Why is a soap bubble like a red hot poker?
Because you cannot catch either.Why is a good teapot like a good artist?
Because they both draw well.What is it that God never sees, the King seldom sees and a man sees every day?
His own equal.It isnt in boys. it is in girls Luke had it in front and Paul had it behind Mrs Mulligan has it twice in the one spot, and Molly Mulally had it five times before she was married?
