Drinks in restaurants are so expensive so my beloved asked for a bottle of something nice to have back home after returning from her birthday meal out. " Pink or white" she said, "I really don't mind"...
... So I got her a bottle of the pink, but on reflection I think she might have actually preferred the white Gaviscon.
There was a Postal worker whose job it was to process all the mail that had illegible addresses.
One day, a letter came in addressed' in a shaky handwriting, to God with no address. He thought he should open it to see what it was about.
The letter read:
Dear God,
I am an 83 year old widow, living on a very small pension. Yesterday someone stole my purse. It had £100 in it, which was all the money I had until my next pension payment in January. Next Sunday is Christmas, and I had invited two of my friends over for dinner. Without that money, I have nothing to buy food with. I have no family to turn to, and you are my only hope.
Can you please help me?
Sincerely,
Edna
The postal worker was touched. He showed the letter to all the other workers. Each one dug into his or her pocket and came up with a few pounds. By the end of his shift he had collected £96, which he put into an envelope and sent it to the woman, anonymously.
The rest of the day, all the workers felt a warm glow thinking of Edna and the dinner she would be able to share with her friends.
Christmas came and went.
A few days later, another letter came from the same old lady to God.
All the workers gathered around while the letter was opened.
It read:
Dear God,
How can I ever thank you enough for what you did for me? Because of your gift, I was able to fix a glorious dinner for my friends. We had a very nice day and I told my friends of your wonderful gift.
Yours Gratefully,
Edna
PS there was £4 missing, I suppose those thieving at the Post Office took it!

Who Says Men Don’t Remember
A couple were Christmas shopping. The shopping centre was packed and as the wife walked around she was surprised to discover that her husband was nowhere to be seen.
She was quite upset because they had a lot to do and hence, she became so worried that she called him on her mobile phone to ask him where he was.
In a quiet voice he said: "Do you remember the jewellers we went into about five years ago, where you fell in love with that diamond necklace that we couldn't afford, and I told you that I would get it for you one day?"
The wife choked up and started to cry and said: "Yes, I do remember that shop." He replied….
"Well, I'm in the pub next door!"
