Dubious field-sports


Overheard in the Chipping Sodbury field-sports shop:


No.1 son: “Dad, why is fishing a field-sport?”
Chairman: “Well, any sport in which you kill something is a field-sport.”
No.1 son: “How about killing yourself?”
Chairman: “Well, while many people have topped themselves in a field, suicide is not generally classed as a field-sport.”

Back to Logan's run again and puts a whole new angle on the Euthenasia (sp?) debate. Very funny.

Who gets killed when you play cricket ? Possibly a radio commentator but that's just an educated guess.

The third male menopause hormone that you couldn't remember is of course amnesiosterone. Funny you should forget that one....

Suicide is not a particularly exciting field sport as the hunted can never get away from the hunter.

Kabbalah: Kids, eh?

Kapgaf: The Krikkit Wars?

Alan: Very good!
