Bert and Elsie

[sidkid]

An elderly couple were celebrating their sixtieth anniversary. The couple had married as childhood sweethearts and had moved back to their old neighbourhood after they retired. Holding hands, they walked back to their old school. It was not locked, so they entered, and found the old desk they'd shared, where Bert had carved "I love you, Elsie."
On their way back home, a bag of money fell out of a security van, practically landing at their feet. Elsie quickly picked it up and not sure what to do with it, they took it home. There, she counted the money -
fifty thousand pounds!
Bert said, "We've got to give it back."
Elsie said, "Finders keepers." She put the money back in the bag and hid it in their attic.

The next day, two police officers were canvassing the area looking for the money, and knocked on their door. "Pardon me, did either of you find a bag that fell out of a security van yesterday?"
Elsie said, "No".
Bert said, "She's lying. She hid it up in the attic.
Elsie said, "Don't believe him, he's getting senile"
The policemen turned to Bert and began to question him. One said: "Tell us the story from the beginning."
Bert said, "Well, when Elsie and I were walking home from school yesterday ...."
The first policeman turned to his partner and said, "That's it, our work here is done!"

I don't know any jokes at the moment. But I did like yours though, cos it was a sweet story. Didn't mean to offend you.

Don't worry, I wasn't offended, but I am intrigued by the few people on here who post the "that's rubbish" or "not funny" or "heard it before" comments yet never bother to post any jokes themselves. Hey ho, no big deal really.......
