Natalie, Well you being so erudite, With obviously a more appreciative sense of more sophisticated jokes, perhaps you would like to add a joke, give us an insight into real humour and your composition skills. The idea of a long story, joke, is to titivate the reader, leading up to the punch line. Perhaps its just an English thing, Humour. but in general, think most people are amused by my feeble attempts to bring some hilarity and nonsense into a gloomy world. Perhaps an idea would just be to put in a punch line and leave the reader to invent the joke.
Thankyou Karen, Nice to know a few people smiled. Will keep trying to bring a bit of laughter and the odd fit of giggling into peoples lives, lol. You never know, one might even be used at a dinner party, somwhere bringing the host an ovation, nothing better for breaking the ice than a joke and a sense of humour.

Cristine, long jokes are good for one thing... you forget how they started by the time you reach the end haha
Oh well, I better shut up but can always tell you a French joke?
Anyhow...
L’érudition désigne une grande étendue de savoir conférant une connaissance profonde et étendue en littérature, en philologie, résultant le plus souvent de l’étude et de la lecture étendue des documents consacrés au sujet plutôt qu’à des études scolaires.

Natalie That is the most obtuse joke, I have ever heard, didn't understand it, it had no logical conclusion..and it seems a bit pointless writing a joke in French, in the UK forum.
It sounds more like a dictionary defination to me but then I'm not exactly fluent in French.
I would love to tell you a really funny German joke though......................................if only I could find one.

Nikki,
I know several German jokes, The Germans do have a sense of humour. It was told to me by a guy we knew in Hamburg Deiter the twink, lol, lovely guy. Some on reflection are not P.C. but will put up the one on joke of the day.
Nikki is so right (10 points to you)... It was just the definition of Cristines' "erudite" which is not a joke haha...
The best German joke I know is really short and it goes like this "aus fart" haha

If one is considered erudite, one would not need to look it up in a dictionary and quote it verbatim. but i was right about the post being obtuse, inane and having no bearing on witty repartee.

You know I love you anyway Cristine (Kiss, Kiss -
one on each side is the French way)
It's just that you use so many words that I don't know the meaning of as my English teacher was not THAT clever (he was French) haha
If you can't have it the French way, try to have it the Napoleon Bonaparte way
