Look at that odd … thing.
Is it a ball, is it a balloon, no it’s …
That reminds me, I need some oranges.
Mandarins are more appeeling, oranges give me the pip!
Very funny, seriously though I’m going to make some marmalade.
My Ma made marvellous marmalade.
Very amusing Marmaduke. I might make some jam too.
James, what happened when a truck spilt a load of strawberries on the motorway?
Go on, tell me.
Caused a jam!
Your jokes get worse. Say, why don’t we pop to the bar for a beer?
Great idea, I’ll raise a toast to your marmalade!

That was fun! Now I’ve a hankering for marmelade, no strawberry jam, no…
Have some of each, why not? Thanks for that intriguing picture Dale!
Right. Why hold back?
Glad you enjoyed 🙂
Hello, Keith.
I love your witty dialogue. This is really good fun!
I’m pleased! Thanks Mason.
Fun story Keith
Thanks Sadje.
My pleasure.
Marmaduke really knows how to keep things colorful even if the only avaliable color is orange~
He certainly does Larry! Cheers.
Keith,
LOL. The jokes may only get worse with a beer!
pax,
dora
No doubt about that Dora!
Very punny.
Writing puns is a difficult pundertaking!
Marmalade it is fabulous, and always better than being in a jam
I quite agree Michael!
Which reminds me I have some Seville oranges chopped up in the freezer.
What are you waiting for? Cheers Liz.
Thank you for making me smile again, Keith! I love how you play with words.
I’m pleased I did! Words are fun to play with.
Always on tap for a joke, aren’t you!
I’d like to think so! Cheers, Mimi,
The old jam jokes are always sticky ones to tell.
I was her bread, she was my jam. One day she left me saying she deserved butter. Boom boom! Cheers James.
I called her my furry bunny, because she dropped the toast Butterside Down.
Yaak!
STOP!!!😂
Wonderful. Now I want toast with marmalade.
Me too! There’s nothing quite like it!
Dear Keith,
Nothing like a pun that makes us groan within a story that makes us smile. 😀 Fabulous froggy
Shalom,
Rochelle
That was exactly my aim, Rochelle! Laughing takes more effort than a leisurely groan!
Hopefully his jokes will improve after a few pints 🙂
I wouldn’t bank on it Ali!
while trump can have his mar-a-lago, we can have marmalade. 🙂
Haha, absolutely so! Cheers plaridel.
Thank you Keith ……. Superball, the new comic strip hero ! Hope to be joining you soon on Friday Fictionneers. Take care. All the best..
Thanks, Susan – so pleased you’ll be taking part, the more the merrier!
I bet you enjoyed writing this as I did reading it. It does look like a giant fruit!
I love writing simple humour, and I’m so pleased you liked it! Cheers, Lisa.
Cheers!
Mandarins are certainly more a-peeling! I love corny jokes. (How do you catch a unique rabbit. How? U-nique up on it. I couldn’t help myself…haha.) Cute dialogue and fun story, Keith!
I like them too and yours is just brilliant! Thanks so much, Brenda.
Lovely word play, Keith!
Thanks so much Penny!
Hahahaha love all the dad jokes here!
You can’t beat paternal puns! Cheers Laurie.
It’s going to be a long night. Even a dozen beers might not dull this edge.
I’m sure you’re right Sandra!
This was very punny … and now I have me a harking for some jam. Or marmalade. Even better … 😉
Feeling punny? Have some honey!
LOL!
Agreed, mandarins are better. Pips are annoying.
Yep, pips give me the pip too! I do like Cox’s Orange Pippin apples though!
Great stuff, Keith. Puns and alliteration, all in one little story 🙂
This iss a great blog
