Hosepipe bans were introduced by King Humphrey the 3rd in 1766. King Humphrey, who was originally from Chelmsford, hated all things Scottish, and intended to introduce a bagpipe ban. However, due to an unfortunate printing error......

Doggers start life as joggers, and as they get older and fatter they can only run as far as the local lay by.
