Apparently, this is a real reply from the UK Inland Revenue. The
Guardian newspaper had to ask for special permission to print it. The
funniest part of this is imagining the content of the letter sent to
the Tax Office which prompted this reply!
Dear Mr ---------
I am writing to you to express our thanks for your more than
prompt reply to our latest communication, and also to answer some of
the points you raise. I will address them, as ever, in order.
Firstly, I must take issue with your description of our last as
a "begging letter". It might perhaps more properly be referred to
as a "tax demand". This is how we at the Inland Revenue have
always, for reasons of accuracy, traditionally referred to such
documents.
Secondly, your frustration at our adding to the "endless stream
of crapulent whining and panhandling vomited daily through the
letterbox on to the doormat" has been noted. However, whilst I have
naturally not seen the other letters to which you refer I would
cautiously suggest that their being from "pauper councils, Lombardy
pirate banking houses and pissant gas-mongerers" might indicate that
your decision to "file them next to the toilet in case of
emergencies" is at best a little ill-advised. In common with my
own organisation, it is unlikely that the senders of these letters do
see you as a "lackwit bumpkin" or, come to that, a "sodding charity".
More likely they see you as a citizen of Great Britain , with a
responsibility to contribute to the upkeep of the nation as a whole.
Which brings me to my next point. Whilst there may be some
spirit of truth in your assertion that the taxes you pay "go to shore
up the canker-blighted, toppling folly that is the Public Services",
a moment's rudimentary calculation ought to disabuse you of the notion
that the government in any way expects you to "stump up for the whole
damned party" yourself. The estimates you provide for the
Chancellor's disbursement of the funds levied by taxation, whilst
colourful, are, in fairness, a little off the mark. Less than
you seem to imagine is spent on "junkets for Bunterish lickspittles"
and "dancing whores" whilst far more than you have accounted for is
allocated to, for example, "that box-ticking facade of a university
system."
A couple of technical points arising from direct queries:
1. The reason we don't simply write "Muggins" on the envelope
has to do with the vagaries of the postal system;
2. You can rest assured that "sucking the very marrow of those
with nothing else to give" has never been considered as a practice
because even if the Personal Allowance didn't render it irrelevant,
the sheer medical logistics involved would make it financially
unviable.
I trust this has helped. In the meantime, whilst I would not
in any way wish to influence your decision one way or the other, I
ought to point out that even if you did choose to "give the whole
foul jamboree up and go and live in India " you would still owe us
the money.
Please send it to us by Friday.
Yours sincerely,
---------

A father asked his 10-year old son if he knew about the birds and the bees.
'I don't want to know,' the child said, bursting into tears. 'Promise me you won't tell me.'
Confused, the father asked what was wrong.
The boy sobbed, 'When I was six, I got the 'There's no Easter Bunny' speech.
At seven, I got the 'There's no Tooth Fairy' speech.
When I was eight, you hit me with the 'There's no Santa' speech.
If you're going to tell me that grown-ups don't really shag, I'll have nothing left to live for.'

A man walks into a restaurant with a full-grown ostrich behind him.
The waitress asks them for their orders.
The man says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke," and turns to
the ostrich, "What's yours?"
"I'll have the same," says the ostrich.
A short time later the waitress returns with the order. "That will
be £9.40 please." The man reaches into his pocket and
pulls out the exact change for payment.
The next day, the man and the ostrich come again and the man
says, "A hamburger, fries and a coke."
The ostrich says, "I'll have the same."
Again the man reaches into his pocket and pays with exact change.
This becomes routine until the two enter again. "The usual?"
asks the waitress.
"No, this is Friday night, so I will have a steak, baked potato and
a salad," says the man.
"Same," says the ostrich.
Shortly the waitress brings the order and says, "That will be £32.62."
Once again the man pulls the exact change out of his pocket and
places it on the table.
The waitress cannot hold back her curiosity any longer. "Excuse me,
sir. How do you manage to always come up with the exact change
in your pocket every time?"
"Well," says the man, "several years ago I was cleaning the attic and
found an old lamp. When I rubbed it, a Genie appeared and offered
me two wishes. My first wish was that if I ever had to pay for anything,
I would just put my hand in my pocket and the right amount of money
would always be there."
"That's brilliant!" says the waitress. "Most people would ask for a
million dollars or something, but you'll always be as rich as you want
for as long as you live!"
"That's right.. Whether it's a gallon of milk or a Rolls Royce, the exact
money is always there," says the man.
The waitress asks, "What's with the ostrich?"
The man sighs, pauses and answers, "My second wish was for a tall chick
with a big ass and long legs who agrees with everything I say."

My wife said to me, "You weren't even listening were you?"
I thought, "That's a strange way to start a conversation!"

I was explaining to my wife last night that when you die you get reincarnated but must come back as a different creature. She said she would like to come back as a cow. I said, "You obviously haven't been listening."

___________________________________________

TramRam got a reaction from ariotofmyown in Watchable telly
I've been watching a programme about a group of people in WW2, Where they dress up as Soldiers and patrol where they live, The Captain is a bit aloof, His Sergeant is the clever one, Then there's this Corporal who's a Butcher, He keeps saying don't panic don't panic...very funny it is, An old chap called Godfrey, He always needs the bathroom and won't pee outside, A soppy lad called Pike he always gets into trouble, He makes me laugh.
All the Wives in the Village where they live often go to the Butchers to get an extra sausage, The Corporal often gives them one.
