A favourite Christmas joke

A rather macabre one - but such is my sense of humour. This, actually, was originally a cartoon in Punch, but I have been unable to dredge up the original from the Net.


On a snowy winter's night, a rather bemused middle-aged man in his pyjamas is walking reluctantly down the garden path away from his little cottage, meekly following behind the figure of The Grim Reaper. As he glances over his shoulder for one final look at his home, he sees, high above in the sky, Santa and his reindeer flying by.

The Reaper remarks: "I bet you didn't believe in him either."
