Bloody hell - it's Richard Madeley ... no ... it's Alan Partridge ...
Here's a joke for you all:
(for the record - I am Irish)
There was a Thick Paddy who came over from Ireland to england looking for work.
As is the case with all Thick Paddies (as we all know), he headed straight for a building site.
When he arrived, he asked the foreman:
"mister .. d'ye have a job"
To which the foreman replied,
"I do, but first I need you to tell me the difference between a joist and a girder".
The Thick Paddy scratched his head and replied:
"sure that's aisy ... Joist wrote Ulysses and Girder wrote faust".
And Maya Angelou wrote "I know why the cage bird sings",
And in the process she made it easy for the rest of us to understand why too.
And enriched our lives by sharing her personal experience and her thoughts.
