One for the pros...

Hell on Earth | Bethesda.net


An engineer dies and reports to the Pearly Gates. Saint Peter checks his dossier and, not seeing his name there, accidentally sends him to Hell.


It doesn't take long before the engineer becomes rather dissatisfied with the low level of comfort in Hell. He soon begins to design and build improvements,

and shortly thereafter, Hell has air conditioning, flush toilets and escalators. Needless to say, the engineer is a pretty popular chap.


One day, God calls Satan and says: "So, how are things in Hell?"


Satan replies: "Hey, things are going great. We've got air conditioning, flush toilets, and escalators, and there's no telling what our engineer is going to come up with next."


"What!" God exclaims. "You've got an engineer? That's a mistake - he should never have been sent to Hell. Send him up to me."


"Not a chance," Satan replies: "I like having an engineer on the staff, and I'm keeping him!"


God insists: "Send him back or I'll sue!"


Satan laughs uproariously and answers: "Yeah, right, and where are you going to get a lawyer?”

I don't think older SJWs like him would understand or appreciate that, Mr H, but I relish the thought...

Thanks Kev, I hope all is well with you all down there!

It's actually a joke from Manchester City's website, so don't mention it to Elby...

I won't.

We're oop North at the moment. We have the lads and girlfriends with us (all 22 years of age.) I'm struggling to hold my own with board games, Texas Hold 'em, quizzes and hiking...

I suppose that's a mark of a job well done as regards parenting.
