    Sorry, I realise it was too obscure!!

    I'm still scratching my head about the joke, though. Or 'uzzled as padraig has noted. Would it have made any difference if it was a neutrino? Perhaps a philosophical joke - "a unicorn walked in ..."?

      "The barman said 'We don't serve tachyons'

      A tachyon walked into a bar"

      A long time ago in a Goon Show someone - Neddie Seagoon? - walked into the Three Witches' cave:

      "Yes, that's right."

      "Is it true you can see into the future?"

        A bloke walked into a bar and shouted "OUCH".

        It was an iron bar.

              A bloke walks into a bar and orders a double whisky.
              As the barman hands him the drink the bloke says "I shouldn't be having this with what I've got".
              The barman says "why,what have you got ?"
              The bloke says "10p".

                Ah, but we may believe that neutrinos are real, whereas, as Anna has pointed out tachyons are "hyperthetical" [was that intended?]

                    A homeless guy came up to me and asked "any change"
                    I said "no, still got the big house and the nice car"

                        doctor: Hello, what seems to be the problem, do sit down.
                        patient: I won't if you don't mind, I have a cricket ball lodged up my backside.
                        doctor: How's that?
                        patient: Don't you start.

                            What did the slug say to the passing snail?

                            "Big Issue"?

                              Mild humour

                              Ten (10) things I know about you.

                              1. You are reading this

                              2. You are human.

                              3. You can’t say the letter ”P” without separating your lips.

                              4. You just attempted to do it.

                              6. You are laughing at yourself

                              7. You have a smile on your face and you skipped No. 5.

                              8. You just checked to see if there is a No. 5.

                              9. You are laughing at this because you are a fun loving person & everyone does it too.

                              10. You are probably going to send this on to see who else falls for it.

                                I found some old photos of me from when I was a kid, playing on swings made from rope and old tyres.

                                They were Goodyears.
