tech_guy Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 A dad walks into a supermarket with his young son. The kid is holding a 10 pence piece. Suddenly, the boy starts choking, going blue in the face. The dad realizes the boy has swallowed the coin and starts panicking, shouting for help. A well dressed, attractive, but serious looking woman in a grey business suit is sitting at the cafe in the supermarket, reading her newspaper and sipping a cup of coffee. At the sound of the commotion she looks up, puts her coffee cup down on the saucer, neatly folds the newspaper and places it on the table, gets up from her seat and makes her way, unhurried, across the supermarket. Reaching the boy, the woman carefully takes hold of the boy's testicles and starts to squeeze, gently at first and then ever more firmly. After a few seconds the boy convulses violently and coughs up the coin, which the woman deftly catches in her free hand. Releasing the boy, the woman hands the money to the father and walks back to her seat in the cafe without saying a word. As soon as he is sure that his son has suffered no lasting ill effects, the father rushes over to the woman and starts thanking her saying, "I"ve never seen anybody do anything like that before, it was fantastic. Are you a doctor?" "No," the woman replies, "I work for the Inland Revenue" 1
srochford Posted November 17, 2010 Posted November 17, 2010 Definitely "lol" but not totally true - IR are probably very good at collecting the small amounts of money from mere mortals but let the likes of Vodafone get away with not paying billions in tax!!
