PUZZLED!!!!!!

If Tesco open 24 - 7, why have they got locks fitted to the doors?

Why is there always enough Flora in the tub to butter one more piece of bread?

If all people came from Adam and Eve, where did the Chinese come from?

Why does nobody say their phone number on answering, when contestants phone a friend on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, then sound surprized when it's Chris Tarrant?

Why do other peoples chips taste better than if you had bought some?

Why did my mum and dad always ...

Why did my mum and dad always make me go to bed when I wanted to stay up, and made me get up when I wanted to stay in bed?

Why is someone always cleaning the motorway toilets when I am busting for a pee?

When receptionists answer the phone and say 'how can I re-direct your call' how do they know that I don't want to speak to them?

If Tesco open 24 - 7, why have they got locks fitted to the doors? Cos of Sunday trading they close at 10pm on Saturday and re-open on Sunday morning, then close Sunday afternoon and re-open on Monday

If all people came from Adam and Eve, where did the Chinese come from? Look at the bible and the story of the Tower of Babel - everyone had previously spoken the same language and they tried to build a tall tower so God changed the languages.

Why does nobody say their phone number on answering, when contestants phone a friend on Who Wants To Be A Millionaire, then sound surprized when it's Chris Tarrant? .I can answer the question on Millionaire cos I've sat in the audience many times - in fact, I'll be in the audience on 27th April... It's only filmed across the road so it's a very cheap night out. They don't sound surprised as they know their friends are on the fastest finger round of Millionaire and the person only gets to choose 5 friends to ring. Threfore, they know that there is a good chance that they will be rung.

Judith, they were only light-hearted comments.........however.......

1. So it's not 24 - 7.!!!!!!!! which means they should be open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

2. He may have changed the language, but what about the colour?

3. So, why does nobody answer the phone EVER by saying Bristol 789453 for example? It is ALWAYS......... HELLO! Very few people in my experience ever answer the phone by just saying HELLO. Also, in all the time it has been running, the phone has never been ...

Oh yes it has - you don't see that - the same way that there's a time when everyone gets fastest finger wrong. Seen that happen when they asked the sequence of words for the national anthem...

re: PUZZLED!!!!!!

Am I the odd one out because I don't bother with number these days, just HELLO?

Caller display means I don't answer Private Caller etc so usually know who's calling - I'd be no good on Millionaire - I'd never answer the phone!!

Bet loads of people don't say numbers now they've got longer.
