Friday Fun 11th July

We start this feature, as ever with the Friday joke.  As is often the case, we nick one from Dad joke purveyor and good mate of this blog, Robert Wilkinson

Apparently, putting alka seltzer into your mouth and walking into Tesco shouting ' the virus has mutated!' is not considered amusing by shoppers or management.
