Rule number one – always keep a sense of humour

Now I’m not one for telling jokes, but these are worth sharing:

A man went to his bank manager and said, “I’d like to start a small business. How do I go about it?
“Simple”, said the bank manager, “Buy a big one and wait.”

The bank returned a cheque to me this morning, stamped “Insufficient funds”. Is it them or me?

And my favourite:

Bradford and Bingley employees are concerned that they were given no notice of the takeover by Santander Bank.
A Government spokesman said:”No-one expected the Spanish acquisition.”

Sometimes the truth is harder to make up than fiction…
