Henry was trying to sell his battered old car for £45.His friend,Tom, said he would pay 10% less than the price Henry was asking for the car.Henry was not very good at figures so he said he would think about Tom's offer.That evening, when he was in his usual bar,Henry asked thebarmaid "if i offered you £45 less 10% what would you take off?"
The barmaid hesitated slightly, then replied: "Everything exept my ear-rings."
The vet had just supervised the delivery of a litter of kittens to the old spinsters cat."I just don't know how it could have happened,"said the spinster."Tibbles is never allowed out and no other cats are ever allowed into the house."
" But what about him?"asked the vet, pointing to a large tom cat sitting in an armchair.
"Oh, don't be silly," replied the spinster. "That's her brother."
