I told my dad that I always felt a deep sense of foreboding when we drive on the bridge over the canal

He said "That's because the canal IS for boating."

Some unexpected consequences of coronavirus..

So it's been almost 3 weeks since a lockdown was triggered in the UK and there have been quite a few knock on effects.. Some good and some bad which I want to share in this post.

Firstly one of my friends lost his job. He worked as a psychic.. Never saw it coming. Its been a difficult couple of weeks and he is now considering a complete career change...considering becoming a baker of all things.. But I suppose he really kneads the dough. I suggested he focus on photography, but nothing ever developed.

Another of my friends was also made redundant. He managed to get a Skype interview for a position in Tescos within a few days. The interviewer asked him: "what is your biggest weakness?", he replied "I don't know when to quit". The interviewer said "OK, your hired". He said "I quit".

Work has been busy for me but since I can't enjoy the things I usually do I have been looking for some new things to do around the house. It's been nice have the thyme to do more cooking. I randomly started a boat building business in my garage.. Sails have gone through the roof.

In an unsettling reversal of my teenage years I am now shouting at my parents for leaving the house. I suggested they take up scrabble to keep them occupied.. Turned out to be a bad idea from the word go.

It's been great hearing about how world pollution levels have been failling. I read the story about fish now being visible in the canals in Venice.. I hope that story isnt a load of pollocks! Cod, these were eely bad. Will stop carping on now!

I'm in the process of getting a show on the local public access channel started. It's going to be a weekly recording studio session that showcases local bands.

again one of those wife-comebacks

My wife and I were sitting by one of the canals in my city when a duck came flying towards us. I shouted "Duck" as it flew close over our heads and was really please with myself. My wife doesn't even smile so I ask if she didn't think it was funny. Her reply: "I guess it went over my head"

So I went to the dentist the other day.

I had to get a root canal at the dentist the other day and the dentist told me that I could either keep my tooth and get a root canal (more expensive) or just get the tooth pulled and replaced by something else (a bit less expensive). He then asked me what I wanted to do.

I told him I'd like to keep my tooth; I've become pretty attached to it.

A bug's life

So this thing flew into my wife's ear last night. After a trip to the emergency room to get it out and take care of the excruciating pain caused by the bug moving around in her ear canal I started up on the dad jokes.

'Huh, looks like you caught a bug'

'I guess that was bugging you'

'You were acting kind of buggy with that in your ear'

'Did we just see a bug's life?'

I enjoyed them immensely. My wife just rolled her eyes at me.

A Dadjoke from 16 years ago

When my little brother was born, he got super bruised from the birth canal and came out purple. As soon as he was born, my grandfather (who was in the delivery room) turned to my grandmother and asked:

"Is there anyone purple on your side of the family?"
