Some gentle humour

[fredfertang]

Here's one I heard earlier today:-



A lady walked into a Police Station and the desk Sergeant said "Can I help you?"
"Yes" she said, "I'd like to report a case of sexual assault".

"Where did it happen?" the Sergeant asked.

"In the park just down the road" she replied.

"Can you describe what happened?"

"Yes, I was walking along the footpath in the park near the trees when a man jumped out of the bushes and dragged me in there, removed my underwear then he dropped his pants to his knees and had his way with me"

"Could you give me a description of him?"
"Yes, he was wearing white shoes, long white trousers, a white shirt and he had these two big long pads from his feet up to and over his knees, one on each leg".


"Sounds to me like he was a cricketer, most probably
a batsman", said the Sergeant.

"Yes", said the lady, "He was an Aussie Cricketer".
"That's very observant", said the Sergeant, "You
worked that out from his accent?"

"No", she replied. "I worked it out because he wasn't in for very
long"
