I told the missus that I would be home by midnight ... promise! Well, the yarns were being spun and the grog was going down easy and at around 3 am full as a boot, I went home. Just as I got in the door, the cuckoo clock started and cuckooed three times. Quickly I realized she'd probably wake up, so I cuckooed another nine times. I was really proud of myself, having the quick wittedness, even when smashed, to escape a possible conflict. Next morning the missus asked me what time I got in and I told her "midnight." Whew! Got away with that one! She then told me that we needed a new cuckoo clock. When I asked her why she said: "Well it cuckooed three times, said 'Fuck it', cuckooed another four times, farted, cuckooed another three times, cleared its throat and cuckooed twice, then giggled!
