Tussauds didn’t actually bin their models.
There was a short item on the BBC 6pm news programme yesterday. The models have been moved a few feet into a separate space on the other side of the room from the models of the other senior royals “and remain much-loved by our visitors”.

“and remain much-loved by our visitors”.
Never mind the legs, most would rather see the back of them!

My wife said she wanted to go and see a Monkees concert in Switzerland.
I thought she was joking, then I saw her face.
Now I’m in Geneva.

At times like this I wish Spitting Image was still on our screens* - what a field day they would have had with the recent comings and goings with the Royal Family.
*Wiki suggests it came back via HBO in 2017 but I don’t recollect anything.
Not a joke but did made me laugh, my wife just told me they had a job application in today from someone called Skye Walker 
Gosh, thanks Mum, thanks Dad…

My nephew was digging a large hole in the backyard when his next door neighbour stuck his head over fence and asked what he was doing. He explained he was burying his pet goldfish. The neighbour remarked it was such a big hole for a little goldfish. My nephew replied “not really, it was eaten by your cat”.

From an Irish friend of Mine …
Fisherman
The rain was pouring down. There standing in front of a big puddle outside the pub was an old Irishman, drenched, holding a stick, with a piece of string dangling in the water.
A passer-by stopped and asked, "What are you doing?
“Fishing” replied the old man.
Feeling sorry for the old man, the gent says, “Come in out of the rain and have a drink with me.”
In the warmth of the pub, as they sip their whiskeys, the gentleman, being a bit of a smartass cannot resist asking, “So how many have you caught today?”
“You’re the eighth” says the old man
