Your Round !!!

On a Sunday evening there used to be a group of 'older' members who would get together and have a few beers. It is a regular occurrence.

Everyone used to take it in turns to buy a round except one guy, who shall remain nameless. One evening the others had had enough and so one proceeded to tell the following joke ...


St Peter had just died and on reaching the Pearly gates God said: "Before you can enter heaven you must complete a task. You must take this bucket and go and empty Portsmouth Harbour."

For 5 long years Peter tried unsuccessfully to empty the harbour. Peter went back up the Pearly gates and spoke to God. He said: "I have spent the last five years trying to empty the harbour and I haven't even reduced the water level by an inch. Could I have another task?"

God replied: "Go down to Wimbledon Rackets and Fitness Club and persuade ............... to buy a round of drinks."

With that Peter picked up the bucket and went back to Portsmouth.

Strangely enough that member bought a round of drinks that night!! And if you come to Wimbledon on a Sunday night you will still find some of the old crowd having a pint at the bar.
