Post 500 god I'm gobby get


Barrel of Fun: early morning radio

I heard this half awake this morning“the BBC has found that there is more oil in the North sea than was first thought”


You can imagine the scene

BBC: shouting from upstairs “ Mum, you know you said there was some oil in my cupboard, I can’t find it”

BBC’s Mum: That’s because you never look probably, have another look.

After 10 seconds

BBC: I can’t find it!

BBC’s Mum: Don’t make come up stairs, have you looked under that festering pile of clothes.


15 minutes later the BBC is sat in living room watching T4 surrounded by barrels of Brent crude when BBC’s mum come in


BBC’s Mum: So you found it them?

BBC: grunts and goes back to texting MTV......


The only other way it could happen is that people have been almost using up oil fields and putting them back in fridge with just a little bit left and all the real oil is stuck in the ice at the back next to the wilted iceberg lettuce of coal reserves and the 2 month out of date bulging pot of natural gas peach melba yoghurt .. .
