Gordon Brown Is Not A Celebrity, But He Knows Winehouse Is
GORDON Brown is not a celebrity. No, really. But Gordon Brown knows all about celebrity. He knows Nelson Mandela, who doesn’t know Amy Winehouse.
Winehouse is the only celebrity who Mandela has not already met or is not waiting outside his office in a queue of celebs that stretches for some miles.
Says Gordon in the Sun of Nelson’s 90th birthday concert:
“As he looked at the concert I had this responsibility of explaining to him, as she came on stage, who Amy Winehouse was.
And who she?
“And so I was, um, it took a bit of time to tell the full story.
“Then Amy Winehouse was saying to her friends, ‘You know, Nelson Mandela and my husband have a great deal in common — both of them have spent a great deal of time in prison’. And then when people were singing at the end that great song, Free Nelson Mandela, she was actually singing, ‘Free Blakey My Fella’.”
Mandelaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
After the last line, guests at the No. 10 meeting burst out laughing.
Stop, Gordon, you’re killing us. Really…
One said: “The Prime Minister was on top form.
Well, it’s all about the jokes isn’t it…

You want another joke?
An old guy is sat on his porch in South Africa.
A huge truck pulled up outside his house, the driver got out, walked up to the old guy and said “Here you are sign here”. The old guy said “what is it?”. 15,000 exhaust pipes was the reply. “Clear off” the old guy said “I’m not interested”.
The following week the same thing happened only this time it was 12,000 radiators. Again, the old guy told the driver to get lost.
One week later another truck arrived. “What is it this time?” the old man asked. “10,000 windscreens” the driver said. “Sign here”.
“What is it with you Japanese drivers?” said the old guy “One week it’s exhaust pipes, then it’s radiators and now windscreens. Why are you bringing them to me?”.
Confused the driver asked:
“What you mean you not NISSAN MAINDEALER?”

THIS is a joke :-
Gordon Brown was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher asked the Prime Minister if he would like to lead the discussion on the word “tragedy”.
So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a “tragedy”.
One little boy stood up and offered: “If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field & a tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a ‘tragedy’”.
“No,” said Brown, “that would be an accident.”
A little girl raised her hand: “If a school bus carrying fifty children drove over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a Tragedy.”
“I’m afraid not,” explained the Prime Minister, “that’s what we would call a great loss.”
The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Gordon searched the room.
“Isn’t there someone here who can give me an example of Tragedy?”
Finally, at the back of the room, a small boy raised his hand…In a quiet voice he said: “If the Air plane carrying you and Mrs Brown was struck by a “friendly fire” missile and blown to smithereens, that would be a tragedy.”
“Fantastic!” exclaimed Gordon Brown. “That’s right. And can you tell me why that would be tragedy?”
“Well,” says the boy “it has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn’t be a great loss and it probably wouldn’t be an accident either!”
Lets see how the party laugh about that huh!
