A guy walks into a bar with an octopus under his arm. He sets the octopus on a stool next to him and announces: "This is an amazing octopus. I'll bet anyone in this bar £50 that this octopus can play any instrument set in front of it."
None of the people could believe this, so one guy brought up a guitar. The octopus took hold of the guitar and started picking away, better than Jimi Hendrix. The man took £50 from the guitarist. Next someone brings up a trumpet. The octopus started playing the trumpet, better than Herb Alpert. The man won another £50 from the trumpeter. Then some guy brought up some bagpipes. The octopus picked up the bagpipes for a minute and, looking a little puzzled, set them down again.
"Can't you play the bagpipes?" asked the man.
"Play it?" said the octopus, "I'm gonna f**k it as soon as I figure out how to get its pyjamas off!"

Reminds me of a similar joke involving a zebra and a bull...
Short-sighted farmer buys zebra at livestock mart, thinking it's a horse. Zebra's never been on a farm before, so is asking all the animals what their jobs are (rooster - waking the farmer; pig - eating the scraps; sheep-insert your own off-colour comment here, ya heathens ). Zebra gets round to asking the bull.
Zebra: "So what's your job around here, then?"
Bull: "Tek yer pyjamas off, luv, and I'll show ya!"

Is a Zebra White with Black Stripes or Black with White Stripes
And Does a Zebra get really worried by a Zebra Crossing.
Also Zebra crossings cause Goths many problems - Now You See Me. Now You Dont, Now You See Me, Now You Dont

Same Here - I saw Properos Books back in the day and have not bothered to keep up with his work since.James Blast wrote:Ped Greens and me fell oot around Prospero's Books, then I saw Pillow Book and the romance was well and truly over!
I think a quick look on IMDB.com is a good idea - to see what i have missed and what I should have avoided
