My life is always good for a giggle

I love to hear a funny joke, I prefer them short and snappy, The ones that make us belly laugh And leave us feeling happy. I do just love some light-hearted fun, For me that is always good news day. And money wise, I’m set for life, As long as I die next Tuesday! My husband thinks he is a chicken ’Cos he’s got thin hairy legs. I’m not going to tell him he isn’t Because I’m enjoying the eggs! Our wedding turned into a low-key event And not because we were being righteous, We ended up with a quiet affair ’Cos the vicar had laryngitis! I put an amusing conundrum To my companion Tony: ‘What cheese would you use to hide a horse?’ He answered: ‘It’s mascarpone!’ There are ladies who live in a convent, And for some there is nothing nicer. But what do they call the cleverest of all? She is known as nun the wiser! So you must agree there’s nothing so good As a laugh, there is no doubt. Oh now, that’s just reminded me . . .
