There was an old man and his daughter
Who fell head over heels in deep water,
Said the man " Her can't swim,"
( And no more couldn't him)
" I wish someone had tortoise, or taughter."
That's the first one here's the next one ...
What do cannibals play at parties ?
"Swallow my leader."
Here's the third one ..

Here's another ... I hope you like them ...
CALLING ALL DRS !
When you think of the hosts without No.,
Who are slain by the deadly cuco.,
It's quite a mistake
Of such food to partake,
It results in a permanent slo.
Here's the last, and possibly the most cymhleth one ...
PCRUMBS !
There was a young lady called Psyche,
Who was heard to ejaculate " Pcryche!
For when riding her pbych,
She ran into a ptrych,
And fell on some rails which were pspyche.

It works a little bit of you use rhagor for more ... but the "llai" still doesn't work. I suppose you could call him Dai Cwy or something ... but basically, it doesn't work ... nor would it work in German, or Spanish, or whatever.
BUT ... there's always a "but" .... there must be some Welsh jokes that are Welsh-based ... a joke that rhymes worms ( mwyndod) with the Holy Trinity ( Y Trindod) .... or bases a joke on golwr sounding like olwr when you drop the" g ".. that sort of thing.
The truth is, I'm sure I must have read one or two jokes like that ..but I've only got 1 out-and-out Welsh joke book, and I cant' find it !
Anyway, the upshot of all this, is that I'm going to try to find some, and maybe even try to make some of my own ... and the extra upshot ( I wrote upshit first but that's not really funny is it) is that I think you lot should have a go as well... you could send them in... there's a comment thing down there somewhere ... or to [email protected]
Needless to say, I don't do Twiddle or Faceboot or those other things. Or Crapchat.
But now, let's move on to beautiful things .... here's Georgia Ruth with the truly lovely " Hallt" .. I hope you dallt what that means by the way ....
