While attending a 'harmony for couples' weekend, Dave and his partner, Ann, listened to the instructor declare, "It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other."
He then addressed the men, "Can you name and describe your wife's favourite flower ?" ...
Dave leaned over, touched Ann's arm gently, and whispered, "It's Homepride, isn't it ?"
I have just bought a non stick roasting tray, how did they fix the label to it?

Dear Tony,
What always amazes me about jet engines [apart from what looks so complex] is how the bearings keep going on the turbines. Surely there must be a big bearing at the back, which must get very hot, or are there two very big bearings before the burning part, that would inevitably thus be running much cooler?
Just curious. I think that Frank Whittle was a phenomenanl engineer, and inventor. Also Frederik Lanchester.

Dear Tony,
Thanks for the little details. I wondered how the bearings could ever survive that sort of exposure to heat! Different to a piston engine for sure!

My fave engines of all time were the WO Bentley four cyclinder Three Litre, Four and a half Litre variant, and the six cylinder Six and Eight Litre variants. So far in front of their time.Shame Bentley fell to Rolls after the Supercharger fiasco. Overhead camshalfts, Two sparkers per pot and four valves. We are just catching up in IC engines in concept, though the metalurgy in a different story of course!

The Supercharged 4.5 Litre engined race cars broke Bentleys. They had to manufacture 50 road cars to enter Le Manns, and for a luxury car the Six Litre was the far more capable machine on the road. Rolls bought the unsold Supercharged road cars and rebuilt them as standard 4.5 litre versions, but the cash flow crisis ruined a great company. Very sad. Glad to see Bentley and Rolls competing in the market again though, rather than Bentley being second fiddle in the Rolls model line up!
WO Bentley hated the Supercharged 4.5 Litre engine, and correctly predicted it would be unreliable in endurance racing. He reckoned that a well aspirated [four valves per pot] engine optimised would outperform a supercharged one and all you needed to do to get more power was to increase capacity. At the time he was not wrong. The six cylinder cars did rather well at Le Manns!

Back to the jokes folks .....
A Liverpool girl enters an adult shop and asks for a vibrator.
The man says: "Choose one from our range on the wall." She says "I'll
take that red one."
The man replies: "That's a fire extinguisher."
A husband and wife are lying quietly in bed after a romantic night out & a long long session of love making
The wife fondles his hair and asks ....
What would you do if I died? Would you get married again?
Definitely not!
Why not? Don't you like being married?
Of course I do.
Then why wouldn't you remarry?
Okay, okay, I'd get married again.
You would?, oh, I think I’m hurt
…. groan
Would you live in our house?
Sure, it's a great house.
Would you sleep with her in our bed?
Where else would we sleep?
Would you let her drive my car?
Probably, it is almost new.
Would you give her my jewellery?
No, I'm sure she'd want her own.
Would you take her golfing with you?
Yes, those are always good times.
Would she use my clubs?
No, she's left-handed.
…. silence
Shit
