For all you owners of cuckoo clocks..

[pammy]

The other night I was invited out for a night with "the girls." I told my husband that I would be home by midnight, "I promise!"

Well, the hours passed and the champagne was going down way too easy. Around 3 a.m.,drunk as a skunk, I headed for home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock in the hall started up & cuckooed 3 times. Quickly, realising he'd probably wake up, I cuckooed another 9 times.

I was really proud of myself for coming up with such a quick-witted solution (even when smashed), in order to escape a possible conflict with him. The next morning my husband asked me what time I got in, & I told him 12:00. He didn't seem disturbed at all. Whew! Got away with that one!

Then he said,- "We need a new cuckoo clock."

When I asked him why, he said, "Well, last night our clock cuckooed three times, then said, "Oh shit", cuckooed 4 more times, cleared its throat, cuckooed another 3 times, giggled, cuckooed twice more, and then tripped over the cat and farted

Don't tell everyone.

I prefer them on my women actually. Thats why I get suspense and suspenders mixed up. One track mind mate. lol

Some years ago my brother in law returned home in a similar state, maybe a lot worse. but no clock to worry about for him. No, for some reason he staggers around divesting himself of all clothing before throwing up into a wastebin and promptly going to sleep on the hall floor.

Sister in law is awoken by the noise, goes downstairs and appalled by the scene before her does nothing more than throw an old blanket over him.

Morning comes. Children scamper downstairs only to thunder back up again alarmed. "Mummy, Mummy, something is asleep in the hall and it smells horrible!"

"Something smelly & horrible, darling? That would be your father.................."
