Jokes and Funny Stories

Four in a German Castle

During an evening stay in a castle in Germany, a young woman said to the guide that she had been afraid she might encounter a ghost. ”Madame”, he said, “in all my years here I have never seen a ghost”. Noticeably relieved, she asked him how long he had been there. The guide solemnly replied,”Three hundred years”.

A mistake

Two men had put up at a country inn, and they found their bed room so hot in the night that one of them got up to open the door.

As he got back into bed, his friend asked him what kind of night it was. ”I don’t think it’s raining”, he replied, ”but it’s pitch-dark, and there is a strong odour of cheese”. In the morning he discovered that he had not opened the bedroom door, but the door of a cupboard.

Sight Unseen

While telephoning a resort to reserve accommodation for a long weekend I asked about the rates. I was told that they varied, depending on whether I wanted a view of the mountains or a view of the lake.

How much of a difference is there between the two? – I asked. The voice at the other end replied, ”Well, one’s hills and the other’s water”.

to relieve – заспокоювати

solemnly – урочисто, серйозно
