Lennonka (and everyone else here) – please DO bother. You are the hardcore of the hardcore when it comes to Joke.

I have had many a salty tale submitted so far, but nothing so far has breached the boundaries of decency or legality (well, okay, maybe one or two have). But there are many more stories to be told by you good people.

Obviously, I wouldn't want anyone to write about something that was said to them in confidence. That wouldn't be cool. But you are all bright people and would stay the right(ish) side of the line.

That's it for now, save to say – get remembering and then get writing.

Best

Chris
