Was within a 'Jade' thread but Sootyj advised
that it should be in its own thread.

I thought of that joke yesterday (didn't use it or anything). So that's the sort of thing NR want? Email the address on their website saying you're interested in writing for them and then they send one back with details of how to submit.

Good luck with it mate!

Send yours in as well. All's fair in love and – oops, I won't mention it!
Nah, it's cool. Only one way to really make that joke. I'll try and come up with something different

Now that's superb.
I'm not impressed with this. Are we all now so cynical that jokes about a particular person with cancer are acceptable?
You make a fair point. Part of the reason didn't write them before. Became blinded by what "sells" I guess.
Mine was originally within the thread 'The most offensive skit in the world'. I wanted to demonstrate that you didn't have to 'mention the war' i.e. cancer.

Apologies. I shall remove the offensive item. And yeah, the other was more discreet.

She's getting a hundred grand, I want my 20 squids.
You should treat her with the same contempt she treats herself.

Thats a good one for adding some spice to an existing sketch.
Nice one.
