Meanwhile in Cromer, a local barber got arrested for selling drugs.
It blew my mind, I've been his customer for years.
I had no idea he was a barber...................................

A London solicitor representing a wealthy art collector called his client.
"George, I have some good news, and I have some bad news "
The art collector replied, "I've had an awful day. Give me the good news first."
The solicitor said, "Well, I met with your wife today, and she informed me that she just invested £5,000 in two pictures that
she thinks will bring a minimum of £15 million to £20 million, and I think she could be right."
Saul replied enthusiastically, "Well done! My wife is a brilliant businesswoman! You've just made my day. Now I know I can handle the bad news. What is it?"
The solicitor replied, "The pictures are of you and your secretary."

Re: Joke !
A Mafia Godfather finds out that his bookkeeper, Guido,
has cheated him out of $10,000,000.00
His bookkeeper is deaf. That was the reason he got the job in the
first place. It was assumed that Guido would hear nothing so he
would not have to testify in court.
When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about his missing
$10 million, he takes along his lawyer who knows sign language.
The Godfather tells the lawyer, "Ask him where the money is!
The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido, Where's the money?
Guido signs back, "I don't know what you are talking about."
The lawyer tells the Godfather, "He says he doesn't know what
you are talking about" The Godfather pulls out a pistol,
puts it to Guido's head and says, "Ask him again. Tell him I'll kill him if he doesn’t tell me"
The lawyer signs to Guido, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him."
Guido trembles and signs back, "OK! You win!
The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed
at my cousin Bruno's house.
The Godfather asks the lawyer, "What did he say?"
The lawyer replies, "He says you don't have the balls to pull the trigger.”
