Joke

[caddyman]

It amused me, anyway:


Two nuns are riding their bicycles down the back streets of The Vatican. The first nun leans over to the other and says, "I've never come this way before."

The second nun whispers, "It's the cobblestones. Aren’t they wonderful?"

OK it took me a while to work that one out!

I did think that the whole joke rather depended on the nun's bicycles not being equipped with dampeners to reduce the vibrations. On the other hand, those nuns could be hyper-sensitive to the gentlest of bumps on the roads, cobbled or not. So that casts some doubt on the joke as well.

:-) Don't mind me.

Ahhh, nuns, always a good source of comedy.
This can be put on a par with the other favourite - "Yes, doesn't it!"

Quite, and it's up there with Sarah Pippeleeny, too!

Don't recall that one.

Quick recap:

3 Nuns killed by accident are given a second chance to go back to earth: 1 wants to go back as Mother Theresa to do good works. The second, after some thought thinks she would like to live a normal, but religious life as a catholic housewife as she has done the nun thing. The third, much younger and Italian wants to be reincarnated as Sarah Pippeleeny.

St Peter looks at her blankly, so she pulls a newspaper clipping out of her robes and hands it to him. The headline says "Sahara Pipeline laid by 1,000 men in 3 months."

Very good,

Not one I've heard before though.

Hahahaha -- I guess that nun was somewhat dyslexic! :-)

The memories come flooding back: A certain Mr N Burton told me that joke when we were teenagers, but he spoilt it by delivering the punchline as "I've never been this way before." So I laughed at the dear lad's nerkiness rather than the joke.
