I also got one. The first one I ever wrote, pleasingly, but I've sent in loads since. They did tell me which one it was (for obv reasons I can't put it on here) which is helpful in knowing what they're after.

They IZ wanting Chrimbo stuff now (or at the end of the week) fo' real.

They told me which one I'd sold too. And I didn't recall it so went through all my emails and eventially found it. Clearly memorable.

Bah they don't tell me.

Well, I sent in 16 just under a fortnight ago, I then got an email saying he'd short-listed four of them, and then another a day later asking me not to do anything with two of them for the next month.

Then, today, I didn't appear in the joke count.

I think with hindsight, I'd prefer to hear nothing and then sell a few...

Unless this is normal?

Like any show it's continually competative, you never know what rabbits the other guys got in his hat.

But no I hear nothing till I see the joke tallies.

OK, here's the ones I sent in before I realized what they wanted, basically these are one liners,

* My wife came out of a coma with the mind of a 10 year old but unfortunately not the body.
* I went on a date with Amy Winehouse the other day. I got absolutely wrecked and then went out on a date with Amy Winehouse.
* The wife said I can do anything I want in the bedroom, so I did her best friend.
* I called for the Doctor the other day, it took him two hours to come. He still didn't bump me up the waiting list.
* I lost my job the other day. I found it again though, hanging around the public toilets with lots of other jobs.
* Gillian Mckeith looks at turds for a living, sorry I mean Gillian Mckeith is a turd for a living.
* Digital cameras take sharper pictures these days, is that so they can literally cut your head off?

Good jokes, if you sent the clean ones more than 3 weeks ago, I'd ask if you can resubmit them.

Cool. I only sent in a few (about 5) last week aswell. :)

Does anyone else have a new-found respect for Christmas Crackers?

All the ones I send in to this are too rude apparently :(

Just sent off my first batch.

ha ha. I thought of crackers when I wrote a few right ol' groaners the other day.

Have been asked to forward mine to Graham Trelfer.Is this a good or bad thing?Anyone else to asked to do the same thing?

He runs LSCW and is generally an alround good egg.

Remember it still goes,

Graham-Jack-People at 118 118.

So there's 3 levels of filter to get through.

I've been to ill and busy to write much, so am expecting a terrible showing.

Hey guys,

So, is the e-mail address to send the jokes to still the same if Graham Trelfer has taken over?
