Old Jed. (A bit of rustic humour).

Jed is one of our oldest customers, he is in his 89th year and is as bright as a button. He has a broad Somerset accent and will always rise to high humour when on his weekly visit to our shop.

Last week the subject of conversation was divorce and remarriage. I asked Jed if he had ever considered getting married again. His wife having left him over thirty years ago. He said that 'he had considered it and was looking for the perfect woman.' When I asked him to define the perfect woman, he said 'that she would have to be a deaf and dumb nymphomaniac with a flat over a pub.'
