Yesterday was International Joke Day! - Who even knew that was a thing! -

I am sure that in these stressful weeks and months you haven't lost your sense of humour?

So, today I am challenging you to tell the best jokes to try to make your household laugh.  Can you memorise some of these one-liners and put on your own comedy show to relieve stress and make people laugh?

Laughter decreases stress hormones and increases immune cells and infection-fighting antibodies, thus improving your resistance to disease. Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural feel-good chemicals. Endorphins promote an overall sense of well-being and can even temporarily relieve pain.
