Hi there, Helen.
Now, something really funny happened to me on my way here this morning.
Oh, really?
Do tell me.
I love a funny story.
Right.
A man got on my bus wearing his shoes on the wrong feet.
Ok, and what happened next?
Then he started speaking to me.
He asked if I liked Shakespeare.
Oh, right.
And then he started reading one of Hamlet's famous speeches.
Yeah, Neil?
Yeah.
You told me it was a funny story, but I'm not laughing.
It's not funny.
It's a bit weird.
Yeah, I meant funny peculiar, not funny ha ha.
Funny peculiar, yes.
