National Tell a Joke Day has come around and its the perfect opportunity to spread some cheer amongst your friends.
Everyone delivers jokey anecdotes differently, but nothing can beat a quick pun or one liner.
With jokes being part of our culture since 1900 BC – everyone has a few old favourites stored up in waiting for the perfect punny moment.
Laughing is not only a great way to bond with mates – it also relieves tension and stress and is known to boost your immune system.
So what are you waiting for? It’s time to spread the laughter!
