True story


A friend of a friend's mother was Terry (Monty Python) Jones's cleaner. She had two boys called Genghis and Adolf.


I kid you not.


Terry had the family round one afternoon and made the boys some food. My pal says his abiding memory is of Terry standing on the back door step shouting "Genghis! Adolf! Pizza."


I can't tell you their surname because I think they still live around here but that was daft as well

The Leader of the Opposition in Australia, back in the days when Bob Hawke was PM, was called Andrew Peacock. Fortunately for him, no one spotted that joke at the time.

3 brothers called Sir Ricky, sir Ryan and sir Reece.


Queen Ann


Boy called OJ (orange juice) and his brother called AJ (Apple juice). They apparently had a sister called cinnamon but I never met her.

Is this a joke or are you Katie Hopkins or something?

They should have a blackcurrant juice for comedy value.

I worked for a German company and had a colleague whose surname was Kuntz (true).

Oh, that's reminded me of someone I used to know named her daughter Brie. Yes, that's right, after the cheese.

    • Sorry but I think it's best if people just check things for themselves when they buy things. In three shops/restaurants (from some years back) I just avoid the places concerned, as in all three  cases I was pretty sure it wasn't a genuine mistake, and in one place  it happened more than once and usually late at night.
    • Sorry Sue - me again. This has been on my mind all day, it's a big bug bear of mine. If you don't mind - please can you private message me some of these shops so I can cross reference / add to my AVOID list.  Thanks in advance. Let's make sure this doesn't happen this Christmas, particularly as we head into sales season. Even more problematic in my experience.
