MikeO Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 A man gets up every morning in his flat on the twelfth floor of a block of flats and has a shower. He has bacon and eggs for breakfast, black coffee with two sugars, kisses his wife goodbye then goes down in the lift to the ground floor. He gets the bus (sometimes a taxi if he's running late) to work at the Ministry of Agriculture. After his days work he gets the bus home again, goes up in the lift as far as the sixth floor then he gets out and walks up the remaining six flights of stairs to his flat. Pisses him off because he'd rather get the lift all the way up. Why does he do it? I apologise in advance for the answer . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebluenose Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 hes too small to reach the 12th floor button on the lift so he hits the 6th one and walks the rest up. easy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrueBlue Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 ..................Romey and bluenose are right with the same four you got. Still theres no full stop at the end so surely thats a mistake if its meant to be a sentence basic Egnlish Language stuff which you learn at school. Must start with a capital [letter] and end in a full stop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
