Very funny.

I'm sure we could all come up with some father-in-law jokes now, thanks to you, ha ha.

You snuck yesterday's post in rather late Mrs S.! Hope the tennis is going well.

I hope you are well and good. Surviving my first full week back. Today I had double 11, then double 10 then 9. It was very hard but great fun...

There was an expectant father who had spent quite some time waiting for the offspring to arrive - at his in-laws' place.

As his leave balance had gone into the red, he tells his father-in-law, "When my son comes, do not call up my office and say that I have become a father of a boy because I'll have to shell out a lot for parties. Just leave me a message that the clock has arrived. This will be our code for the arrival of the baby."

The offspring does finally arrive one day, but it's a daughter. The father-in-law now thinks to himself, "If I tell him that the clock has not arrived, he'll misunderstand and think that something has happened to the baby and come rushing over."

So the father-in-law left the following message: "The clock has arrived, but the pendulum is missing."
