Big Ben runs the marathon

Big Ben runs the marathon

An Englishman was attempting to break the world record for a marathon runner dressed as the clock tower in London’s Palace of Westminster “Big Ben”. Lukas Bates ran the whole distance wearing his building suit and was close to making it across the finish line when he became stuck. The 30-year-old’s costume, which stretched close to five feet tall, got caught on the overhead scoreboard he was trying to run under. After several failed attempts to make it through himself, a race steward helped him to cross the line Sunday. “Having run the London Marathon four times previously, this year I decided I wanted to do something different, have a bit of fun and wear a crazy costume.”

An Englishman went into a hardware store and asked to buy a sink.
‘Would you like one with a plug?’ asked the assistant.
‘Don’t tell me they’ve gone electric,’ said the Englishman.

“The English are not a very spiritual people, so they invented cricket to give them some idea of eternity”
