Bad back

INT. DAY. PUB.

A MAN (BILL) IS STANDING AT THE BAR DRINKING WHEN ANOTHER MAN (DAVE) WALKS IN.

BILL: Hello Dave, haven't seen you in a while. How's your back?

DAVE: Bloody marvellous, never better. I'm choking for a pint though.

BILL: I'll get you this. (BILL GESTURES TO BARMAN TO PULL PINT) Did you end up having to get an operation?

DAVE: No, no mate. I went to an acupuncturist a few times.

BILL: Acupuncture? Done the job did it?

DAVE: Big time mate.

AS DAVE DRINKS, BEER STARTS FLOWING OUT FROM DIFFERENT PARTS OF HIS BACK.

ENDS.

Very good, but my gosh that's an old joke.

I know what you mean, probably from an old black and white comedy, with someone getting shot then drinking. Thanks Sootyj

I'm pretty sure that Laurel & Hardy did this gag in one of their films.

Well the acupuntrue makes it more modern.

I think it would work with a second twist.

Maybe a trnavestite sits on his lap.

Thats my homoeopath!
