The Friday Joke and other local news

Firstly, here is our Friday Joke

A girl brings her boyfriend home to meet her parents.
After dinner, her mother tells her father, a business
tycoon, to find out about the young man. He invites
the boy to his study for green tea.
"So what are your plans?" the father asks the boy.
"I am an religious scholar and want to marry your
daughter" he replies.
"A scholar," the father says. "Admirable, but what will
you do to provide a nice house for my daughter to
live in, as she's accustomed to?"
"I will study," the young man replies, "and God will
provide for us."
"And how will you buy her a beautiful engagement ring,

such as she deserves?" asks the father.
"I will concentrate on my studies," the young man
replies, "God will provide for us."
"And children?" asks the father. "How will you support
children?"
"Don't worry, sir, God will provide," replies the boy.
The conversation proceeds like this, and each time the
father questions, the boy insists that God will provide.

Later, the mother asks, "How did it go?"
The father answers, "He has no job and no plans,
but the good news is that he thinks I'm God."

And now the local news.

Please come down to the local news. Please join us at the Bohemia at 7pm. I will be playing my guitar with my band, The Falsedots (well actually just with my singer Allen Ashley). Also appearing will be the amazing Cecilia on piano, Elanor and Josh, Just Lily, The Amazing Uilleann Piper at the Gates of Dawn, Sarah Bear, Louise Loudspeaker and many more. 

Finally please sign this petition - http://you.38degrees.org.uk/petitions/capita-keep-our-jobs-in-barnet It has been started to keep jobs in Barnet in response to the proposals by Capita to relocate 300 jobs to elsewhere in the country. These jobs are funded by local taxes and I believe the money should stay in the local economy.
