Lights ! Camera !! Action !!! As is the case now, the traditional posting of an joke of the day is a couple of sentences down. This is get round the fact that on occasion, random words seem disappear from the first couple of sentences on a posting. There that should do it?... fingers crossed... here we go... A pair of television aerials recently got married... the ceremony was rubbish - but the reception was brilliant. Do you want another?...of course you do. I was walking down the road when I saw a television for sale in a shop window. The sign said "TV cheap, broken volume button"... ...I thought to myself "wow, I can't turn that down." Now before the main point of the post, I begin with a message to my friends across the pond as I understand that over there today it is something called 'Independence Day.' Mind you every day of the year, in some country, somewhere in the world they are marking independence from the British, we were the 17th century equivalent of Miss World as her interests were always "travel and meeting new people"...ok ok… ...make that "British interests were travel and thieving everyone's stuff !"...but with impeccable manners...we always said thank you in a very nice accent as we scarpered with their chests of jewels and gold. Now I understand that in the good ol USA they mark our departure in the traditional way and through the ultimate act of defiance continuing to quietly removing the letter 'u' from the English language...forget throwing tea into Boston Harbour (note the 'u'  tinkering with our spelling is the ultimate insult and by the way it's colour and valour ! If it rains what are you Americans going to put up...an mbrella????...anyway have a jolly, super day. On to my main point...during lockdown, I like you no doubt, consumed many films to pass the time. One such film which I revisited after many was 'About A Boy'...one of Hugh Grant's best as he escaped the mediocre rom coms he started churning out. I thought how similar I am Hugh Grant's character, no silly, sadly minus his looks and even more sadly minus his real life girlfriend at the time, Liz Hurley, bouncing up and down on me. Hugh's character was quite happy with his own company, no commitments, drifting along slightly at odds with the norm, happy head off in another direction from everyone else..."I'm an an island" quote him in the film...and I guess I am too. So dear readers, which cinematic role could you seamlessly fill and why? Ladies maybe you are a Holly Golightly from Breakfast at Tiffany's or a Ripley from Aliens? Gentlemen maybe you are a John Rambo or maybe a Garth from Wayne's World? Do tell..... First man to claim he could fill the role of John Holmes in his films is disqualified. and now the second in an extra feature to accompany each posting...a celebrity crush who happened to randomly pop into my head whilst typing this...drum roll...Susanna Reid...anyone who looks like this after many hosting Good Morning Britain at 6 in the morning AND with Piers Morgan deserves a place on my roll of honour...    It's the weekend...have another that's popped in my head...the rather obscure, I said they were random...A J Odudu...who occasionally pops up on our screens as a not particularly great tv presenter...last time I saw her on television over here she was on Celebrity First Dates looking for a man... so A J ...if you're still looking...call me...and I take it back about your skills as a tv presenter if you do.

Well, I reckon I'd make a better looking George than Clooney himself.......and then I woke up!  Dearie me McSOP, some totally groan-worthy jokes there! Excellent!! Susanna is gorgeous, she was brilliant on Strictly, and aye, I'd jump her bones in a flash.......here, maybe if I put my best George Clooney smile on I might be in with a chance!! Cheese-oh, just let me dream man!!
