Wink 118 118 We Got Your Number

It seems the 118 118 service are in hot water, apparently they do a joke line at a cost of 60p a throw, well a young lad from Accy sent to messages requesting jokes, but when they came back they were racist. Oh by the way this young lad was of Asian decent

Did you hear the one about the White man, the White Man and the White Man?

No neither have I, it would probably be boring any way, let's keep a bit of interesting colour in our humour, I laugh at jokes that end up with the Englishman being the butt of it.

Re: 118 118 We Got Your Number

I thought the joke was poor and not worth 60p.
If you haven't heard the joke it was without the swear words, "what's the difference between an asian and E.T. - E.T. knew when it was time to go home".

I think the joke was the 60p charge the numpty paid for it.

Re: 118 118 We Got Your Number

I always wondered which people phoned these things.

It's like the adverts on television late at night. Some nubile young woman is bouncing on a Space Hopper, asking you to text your postcode, and in minutes you could be texting with exciting girls in your area, and all for the bargain price of two quid a pop.

Still, whatever floats your boat...and lessens your bank balance, must keep some suckers happy.

Like you do.

You get get food poisoning once, then you always go back to the same place afterwards.

It's common sense.

Lol, not far of the mark.

I know someone whose company offer these services.

The busty blond texting you back, is more likely to be a skinhead called Knuckles.

(I never did it, as they couldn't afford the fee I was asking.)

Can always remember an episode of one of these Yank cop shows SVU I think and they went to an address of this dating agency and there was a table with a load of old dears sat round it, all with bright lippy on sicking kisses on reply envelopes, probably from lovely Rita or sexy Sarah. Who was it who said there's one born every minute
