Two men meet in the street.
"Mornin' George said Bill. He was called Bill because he came at the end of the month. George looked up quizically.
"Do I know y...??? OH, it's you Bill. I didn't recognize you without your mask on, where is it?"
"Oh, I had a bad sneezing fit last night while I was out with Lassie".
"She still living with you is she"?
"Yes, but she is thinking of going back to her hubby".
"You said you had a bad sneezing fit".
"Yes, we were going to get some s-s-sl."
"Some slap and tickle in the park?"
"No, some salami to make some sarnies. We had the dog with us and he did a sloppy pooh on the path in front of me. I sneezed, the mask blew off and wrapped itself round Rover's ber-ber-ber,"
"Round his ar.."
"BUM," said Bill quickly. "Well, I wasn't going to put that back on my face. The vet came round this afternoon and checked to make sure that Rover hadn't caught the c-c-c-c"
"CLAP," said George.
"No, Covid 19. Dogs don't catch c-c-c- what you said."
"NO, not that clap. I mean clap as in applaud, it's 8 PM and it's Thursday."
"Eight o'clock? Damn, the pharmacist will be closed and I wanted to buy a new mask".
"Pharmacist?" exclaimed George.
"Yeah, I was going to say ch-ch-ch-."
"Chemist", said George. "You must do something about that stu-stu-stu, oh hell, you've got me at it now. Get a mask quick. It's c-c-c-catching."
