Received this in an e-mail today.
I answered the door and said, "Not again, you came last Christmas.
Here's a fiver, now clear off, and shut the gate on your way out."
I slammed the door behind me.
My wife shouted, "Stop being horrible to the carol singers, they're only raising money for charity."
I said, "It wasn't them, it was your Mother."
Cheers
Pete.
