Harry The Squirrel

A red squirrel and a grey squirrel are sat together eating nuts.

Grey : What's wrong with you Harry?

Red : My girlfriend's bloody left me.

Grey : Oh dear, I'm sorry.

Red : She said I was an embarrassment.

Grey : Really? That's harsh.

Red : She said if she kept seeing me she'd never be able to show her face at Stamford Bridge again.

Grey : I'd say that was an advantage, but I don't really understand women.

Red : She said that I was a racist.

Grey : Well she might have a point.

Red : What?

Grey : Well, I know you only call it me out of affection and friendship. But I do get a bit offended when you call me "Old Grey Haired Bastard!"

Red: Really? But as a point of order I'm right. As you are both grey haired and illegitimate.

Grey : True. But it don't make it any better – we've tried very hard to integrate. That word "grey". it's so offensive to us. Let's face it you don't get on with the other lads either do you.

Red : Well you come over here, stealing our nuts, taking our trees!

Grey : See what I mean! You're a racist.

Red : You bloody well out number us now – in our own bloody country.

Grey : Yes well guess what?

Red : What?

Grey : Nut's and tree's aren't the only things we steal. We also come over here and take your women.

Red : Eh?

Grey : Chelsy ! She's shagging me now. She says I can offer her bigger nuts than you could ever hope to have.

Red : You really are a bastard aren't you.

Grey : And do you know the thing that really used to make her feel sick you little racist runt?

Red : What?

Grey : Your ginger pubes!

That's a great sketch but a weakish punchline

Maybe I just end it with the bigger nut's than you could ever hope to have line??

How about those mege hard Czeck squirrels they call black squirrels.

He could call one sooty and get his head kicked in?

:D that's a good idea.

Agree the current punchline is tame compared to the rest.

Obvious joke would be something about ginger nuts.

Could definitely seeing NR using it, when I saw it a couple of months ago they had a squirrel sketch in I believe. At this rate of writing good quality stuff you'll have enough for a whole show yourself!

Bigfella you are going to see the show aren't you?

I'm not actually. I've got to have a lovely operation in about a month. I'm avoiding public places at the moment cos I can't afford to pick up a bug prior to the surgey. If I do they'll cancel it. :(
