That's a good one. It reminds me of the old one about a man who bought a dog with no nose. His friend asked "How does he smell?"

"B***** awful"

Glad you enforce strict distancing indoors as well as outside.

Here's a nice crossword - orientated joke.

( This might be well-known, but I'll chuck it in just in case it's not )

Sit with a newspaper folded to the crossword bit in front of a fellow enthusiast and stare into the middle distance with a frown. Sooner or later he / she will ask what you're puzzling over. As though reading from the paper, you quote : " Overburdened postman " and carry on frowning. Nine times out of ten the other person will ask how many letters, enabling you to deliver the punchline : " Hundreds "

Thanks for the jokes, folks. MalcolmXword's was my favourite, the others were … slightly on the old side.

Perhaps you missed my pedants' point - you lose your sense of smell, not necessarily your smell!

........and sometimes we can be thankful for the two metre distance rule!

Nice to see your post.... I haven't noticed one for ages

... a nice "stink" clue for you in the TImes today.

I read in the Times that the apostrophe in Betty's tea-shop was lost about 50 years ago. Have you seen it?

I am pleased you are trying new sports. Have you had a go at paragoogling? Perhaps Malone will join you?

I don`t get to Arraget much since we stopped playing at St George`s Road but I`m shocked that Betty has lost her apostrophe! At least St George has retained his.

YP had an `It`s not cricket` answer in their crossword today - the clue was `Football perhaps, that`s not fair`
