Last week one of our running friends asked on Facebook for jokes for her 12-year old daughter and her friends to judge at her birthday party at the weekend. Amazingly my joke was their favourite and tonight they dropped round my prize - a Comic Relief Giggler!





And in case you were wondering, here's my winning joke:
'Why did the crab blush?
....
Because the sea weed.'

When I came home from work the other day I got a letter saying I'd won on the Premium Bonds.  Not enough to pay for our holiday but a nice surprise anyhow.  I finally got round to paying my winnings into the bank today and unusually rather than a cheque you get sent a warrant which you have to sign before banking.  If I was astute I'd probably re-invest it, however it's far more fun to go shopping!
