Ok, so a chicken, a donkey and a bear walk into a bar. No, wait a minute, a duck, not a chicken. And the bear orders a pint of – no, hang on, the donkey orders a bag of dry-roasted peanuts, and the barman says…hang on, it’ll come back to me, wait a minute…no, it’s gone. OK, Derek from Kettering, you tell us one:

Years ago I was told a visual joke. On a piece of paper you draw a large upside-down ‘U’ shape which represents a hill. On top of the hill you draw a square which represents a brothel. Next you draw a stick-man running up the hill towards the brothel and a stick-man walking down the hill away from the brothel. Finally draw a stick-man in the brothel. Now ask: what are the nationalities of the 3 men?

The man running up the hill is RUSSIAN to get there.
The man walking down the hill is FINNISH.
But I can’t remember the man in the brothel’s nationality.
I’ve retold the joke many times, but no one’s got the answer.
It’s driving me mad… so, now, put me out of my misery and answer me this: what is the nationality of the man in the brothel?

Erm, is he a British man who’s got separated from the rest of the stag party in Amsterdam and went into the nearest premises for directions? No? Alright then, readers, step in and finish off Derek’s joke. Although something tells me the eventual payoff won’t be worth it.
