Charlie contemplates going for a spin
Charlie contemplates going for a spin
KAREN SHAKESPEARE

This week’s winner of a bottle of champagne is Janice Reynolds from Brixham, Devon, for her funny story.

One night a burglar was sneaking around a house when he heard a voice say: “Cupid is watching you.”

He looked, saw no one, then spotted a caged parrot.

“Was it you who said that Cupid is watching me?” the burglar asked the bird.

“Yes,” said the parrot.

Relieved, the burglar asked: “What’s your name?”

“Priscilla,” replied the parrot.

“Who’s the idiot who called you that?” scoffed the burglar.

“The same idiot who called the rottweiler Cupid.”

The runner-up is Charlie, above, sent in by Karen Shakespeare from Biddenden, Kent.
