A man answers the ringing mobile in the golf club locker room.
A female voice says “Hi darling, I’m in town & the car salesman has just phoned about that new Mercedes sports model I fell in love with but that you said was too expensive. He says they are desperate to hit their sales targets by the end of the month & if they don’t, they will lose their monthly bonuses. He has therefore knocked £10,000 off the price to get the sale. What do you think?”.
“Sounds much better honey. If you still want it, go for it”.
“Thanks, I will. I’m outside the estate agents & that £1m house we both loved, but you said was overpriced, is still on the market. You were obviously right as the price has been reduced to £900,000. What do you think?
“Sounds great. We both thought it would be ideal for us so go for it as well”.
“Thanks darling, I will. See you later, love you”.
The man turns round, holds up the mobile & says “Anyone know whose phone this is?”.
A fun list, though I’m going to call fraud on the claim that they’re genuine or from as recently as 2011. I remember reading the ‘judicious’ one in a joke book I had as a child!
Oh, and whilst 7 and 11 year olds have historically done SATs in England, 16 year olds sit GCSEs.
