A Young Man
Goes into a Pharmacy to buy some PPE as he has a date that evening . He was served by
a female assistant but was too embarrassed to make a purchase so asked to see the Pharmacist
The pharmacist tells him they come in packs of 3 9 and 12 and asks which one he wants .
Well said the young man I’ve been seeing this girl for a while and she’s really hot, I want the
PPE because I think the nights the night , we’re having dinner with her parents and then we’re
Going out. I really fancy my chances, so you’d better give me the 12 pack ! The young man
makes his purchase and leaves. Later that evening he sits down to dinner with his girlfriend and
Parents. He asks if he can say Grace and they agree. He begins the prayer but continues
Praying for several minutes. The girl leans over and says you never told me you were such a
Religious person,he leans over to her and says” You never told me your father was a pharmacist.

Re: A Young Man
Little silvered haired lady calls her neighbour and says , please come over and help me. I have a killer jigsaw puzzle and can’t figure out how to get started. Her neighbour asks what is it supposed to be when finished ? The little old lady says , according to the box, it’s a Rooster. Her neighbour goes over to help and lets the lady show him where she has all the pieces spread over the table . He studies the puzzle then looks at the box, turns to her and says ….first of all whatever we do we’re not going to be able to assemble these pieces, he takes her hand and says secondly I want you to relax, let’s have a nice cup of tea , and then says with a deep sigh—let’s put all the cornflakes back in the box.

Re: A Young Man
Holiday Reviews.
And they walk among us.
Complaints received by Thomas Cooks from dissatisfied customers.
1. They should not allow topless sunbathing on the beach. It was very distracting for my husband who
Just wanted to relax.
2. On my holiday to Goa in India I was disgusted to find that nearly every restaurant served Curry. I don’t
Like spicy food.
3. The beach was too sandy , we had to clean everything when we returned to our room.
4. We found the sand not like the sand in the brochure. Your brochure shows the sand as white, but it
was more yellow.
5. It’s lazy of the shopkeepers in Puerto Vallartato to close in the afternoons. I often needed to buy
things during siesta time.
6. The roads were too uneven and bumpy, so we could not read the guide book ,during the bus to
the resort. Because of this we were unaware of many things that would have made our holiday more fun.
7. It took 9hours to fly home from Jamaica to England. It took the Americans only 3 hours,this
Seems unfair.
8. The brochure stated,no hair dressers at the resort,we’re trainee hairdressers and we think they
knew and made us wait longer for service.
9. It is your duty as. Tour operator to advise us of Unruly guests before we travel.
10.My fiancée and I requested twin beds when we booked, but instead we were placed in a room
with a King bed. We now hold you responsible and want reimbursed for the fact I became
Pregnant . This would not have happened if you had put us in the room we had booked.

Re: A Young Man
When I Was a young man I decided I wanted to be a doctor , so I took I took the exam to go to medical school.
One of the questions asked to rearrange the letters PNEIS into the name of an important human body part which
is most useful when erect.
Those who answered “spine” are doctors today. The rest of us are sending jokes by email.
