The “season to be jolly” is coming up fast, which given the world news might be more of a challenge this year. Therefore I quote the following,* found accidentally while researching for a blog post the other day, and attributed to the late Spike Milligan:

Two hunters are out in the woods when one of them collapses. He doesn’t seem to be breathing and his eyes are glazed. The other guy whips out his phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps, “My friend is dead! What can I do?” The operator says, “Calm down. I can help. First, let’s make sure he’s dead.” There is a silence, then a shot is heard. Back on the phone, the guy says, “OK, now what?”
