I've sold my son more than once to pay for my bar tab. The trouble is, is he's old enough to know were home is and keeps coming back. I keep trying to sell the missus but no-one wants her except for diddling and she don't want none of that hanky panky stuff!

Problems with alcohol
It is not only Britain that has problems with drinking!
This one has his priorities right.BERLIN (Reuters) - German police arrested a man for drunk driving after he mistook a police spot check for a breakdown and stopped to help.
Officers inspecting a car by the roadside suspected the 37-year-old passing motorist was under the influence of alcohol when he lurched from his vehicle to offer assistance, police in the northwestern town of Bremen said Friday.
"Obviously his optical assessment of the situation as he drove past was that this was a vehicle breakdown," the police said in a statement.
The man was arrested and banned from driving.
BERLIN (Reuters) - A thirsty German sold his 6-year-old step-daughter's pet beagle to the owner of a bar to pay for beer, the Bild newspaper reported Friday.
The unemployed man offered to take the dog for a walk and then stopped at a bar where he convinced the owner to buy the 3-year-old dog for 40 euros.
The man spent the proceeds quenching his thirst for beer. The bar owner has now returned the dog to its owner.Tags: None
