  1. A fly and a flea and a flue
    Were in prison -- so what could they do?
    Said the fly, "Let us flee!"
    Said the flea, "Let us fly!"
    So they flew through a flaw in the flue.

  2. SO here is what keeps me up at night...
    I call a #flashlight a flashlight, other parts of the world call it a #torch. I think I understand why.
    I call an #elevator an elevator, others call it a #lift - I think I even understand this one.

    But the one I just don't understand, is calling #customers #punters - that one has always confused me...maybe someone can explain it
