A bloke is lying down in a telephone box dead. The glass on two sides of the phone box is smashed and there is a bag by his side. How did he die?
The bloke had been fishing. The bag was holding angling equipment, bait, thermos flask, the catch, and so on. He'd been on the 'phone to bore some poor victim about "the one that had got away..." As he bragged "you should have seen the the SIZE of the one that got away" he stretched open his arms (as to indicate length), smashing them through the glass of the telephone box, and bled to death.

A woman walks into a cafe. The bloke behind the counter pulls oput a gun, and points it at her. The woman smiled, thanked him, and walked out.

Can you really lie down in a phone box????
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Depends how tall you are, or how spacious the phone box.

Most of the time, probably not.

I slept in a phone box once, long, long story for another time....

Did not say the phone box had a door so yes you can easily lay down in one. :lol:

Did she have hiccoughs?
They're not weeds - that's a habitat for wildlife, don't you know?
