Post 1648. Monday April 9
I saw Rosey in the hardware shop looking at buckets.
“What are you after?” I asked.
“Well” she said, “there’s a hole in my bucket ….”
“…. dear Liza, dear Liza” I sang out. It was greeted with a blank stare
“As I was saying, the canopy over my balcony leaks and I use my bucket to catch drips. Yesterday when it rained the bucket was empty and the floor was wet. That’s how I know there’s a hole in my …. “
“…. bucket, dear Liza, dear….”
“Shut up” she shouted “This is serious”
“Sorry,” I said.
“I also want a bucket to put my list in”
“What list?”
“My bucket list”.
I pointed out that you don’t actually keep it in a bucket, it’s only called a bucket list because…. because…. then I realised I didn’t actually know!
“What’s going on your list?” I asked
“One. Learn golf”
“So you can get a hole in one?”
“As I was saying, two, go into space”
“Careful you don’t fall down I black hole!” I quipped.
At last, she began to laugh!
I’ve got a hole joke!” she said.
“Better than half a joke” I chuckled. She ignored me and continued.
“A man walked past a hole in a wall and heard a voice coming from it. It said, ‘six six six’. The man peeped in and a fist popped out and bopped him on the nose. ‘Seven seven seven’ said the voice! Do you get it?”
“Yes” I groaned
“I don’t,” said Rosey.
Tomorrow, I is for Invite

I had surgery several years ago and joke that I really do have a hole in my head. I’m wondering about Rosey.
I sometimes think there’s a hole where her brain should be, but don’t tell I told you that! Cheers, Denise.

So it does, Have a great week 2
Hi Keith – poor Rosey … she really does have a problem doesn’t she – but will she come right … still she laughs her way out of her ‘holes’ … take care and here’s to a good week for Rosey and her ramblin’ … cheers Hilary
Fortunately, she doesn’t see it as a problem – she just loves life no matter what happens along the way! Thanks Hilary.
Haha poor Rosie, she has a problem and you only use it for jokes 😁
She loves it really, don’t worry! Cheers Miss Andi
Phew! 🙂
This is such a charming series Keith. I love their sweet relationship. I especially loved when he said I also want a bucket for my bucket list. Looking forward to I.

It is special Balaka. I’m so pleased you are enjoying her company!
‘Better than half a joke’ was wonderful.:)
Great, fun story, Keith.
Thanks, Moon! Glad you liked it.
I sense this could have gone on longer with a whole load more of those jokes! Perfect reading to brighten a dull Monday morning Keith 🙂

The sun’s not smiling down here either, – just the day for a joke or two! Cheers Iain.
This is sooooo witty, Keith. Loved this fun conversation with Rosey! Great going 🙂
Thanks Shilpa. I just hope I can keep on being witty til the end of the month!
I don’t get the numbers bit either! The hole jokes do NOT deserve the dignity of a response! 😉
I could explain it to you, but it’s not really worth the effort! Thanks Sue.
An entertaining episode with Rosey. I imagine her to be around 17…she’s so jolly, and energetic.
She’s almost double that age! Jolly, energetic and best enjoyed in small doses! Thanks.
Perfect post for a Monday morning! I have the hole in the bucket song stuck through my head now.
You might want to investigate her theory that there is a hole in the bucket. I suspect she kicked the bucket while it was on her balcony, causing the bucket to no longer be under the canopy hole.

You could be right, it would not surprise me one little bit. All together now…there’s a hole in my bucket, dear Liza, dear Liza…!
The holey spirit might be frowning on you, Keith. That was a bunch of very bad, but hilarious puns. Thanks for the laughs 🙂
Haha. They were pretty awful! Cheers Varad.
Ha ha ha ha ha.
I’m guessing it amused you! Thanks Anurag
So many hole jokes crammed into a short span. Good job. And yes, I was singing right along.
I know you were, I could hear you from here!
H is for HILARIOUS.
Cheers for the chuckles Keith.
H is for Head Wash Day
My favourite H of the day for which I thank you most sincerely!
Wholly snortable – which I’m sure would please Rosey entirely. 🙂
Funny you should mention that. She is inclined to snort when she laughs. Apparently, she was known as Rosey Piggy Pinkerton ar school!
Bucket list, hole, golf and black holes…hahahaha! You had me in splits Keith.
The stupidest puns are the best I reckon! Cheers Anagha
Haven’t seen posts from you in so long. Good to learn your sense of humor is cooking along just fine. Or should I say, wholly fine!
Hey, I do the puns around here! Great to see you again Beth.
Oh no. How will I stop signing that song now?? Oh dear.
Sorry about that! I heard someone singing it in the street just now – they must have read my story!
Rosie is really hilarious- loved that joke and her innocence!
It’s one of those jokes some people get and some don’t as I’ve found from the comment.s. Rosey didn’t, but that’s hardly surprising. She known for telling great jokes that she doesn’t understand herself!
Is she for real? Else I would say great imagination and if not I would say I love her anyway
I couldn’t possibly answer your question!!! Let’s settle for 50/50! Cheers Akshata
Totally got that joke and it’s amazing…I’m going to have to say it to someone today.

Yea! Have fun with it Morgan and thanks for dropping by.
Hee hee hee. Delightful. I’ll be back. I shared!
JQ Rose
Pleased you enjoyed it. Thanks so much for sharing my little piece of nonsense
Heeheehee! You and Rosie keep me laughing.
I just hope I can keep it up for another three weeks! Cheers mimi.
Well, now I need a bucket too – for my list 😉 Sweet Rosey, to be that blissfully unaware…
That’s Rosey – in a bucket! Thanks Diedre
So much fun. I may be in Rosie’s corner on this one. Does the number refer to the number of people who’ve been punched?
I believe it does. I asked Rosey the same thing and she just shrugged!
You must bring Rosey by for tea. 🙂
I will, just don’t use your best crockery!
Sometimes I miss hole point of playing golf.
Nice one!
