Yes, and?

Nothing unusual or rare about them - there are collectors out there, just as there are with all sorts of ephemera.

I just thought somebody - obviously not you Herc because you've got them all - might be interested.

I think I might report you for upsetting my feelings.

Is that a promise?

No need for promises - I'm always available for you Mr. C 😘

I like the original but the variation is spoiled by use of the word 'cos' and a few other issues. Keep at it, it's another string to your bow for when you leave school.

Yes they're bollocks and childish aren't they. I don't know why he/she/they bother.

Exactly, and that is why I stopped posting cards from my collection, as I got fed up of them being vandalised by this mindless, humourless cretin.

Trouble is, as we've all found out - he/she/it is so thick they don't understand plain English. when it is pointed out that they are NOT funny.

Cyberbullying is not okay.

So why do you do it?

And now a fourth man joins in the bullying, relentlessly kicking me.

The real question is who sets their alarm for 06:05.

Good question, Gappy. Not me, that's for sure.

Here's another gem:

Original postcard, with the most yukkily-worded caption I've ever seen. What were they thinking when they published that?
Image

My variation. Exactly the same joke (I hope!) but differently worded.
