    "The Ferrari F1 team fired their entire pit crew yesterday."

    This announcement followed Ferrari's decision to take advantage of the British government's 'Work for your Dole' scheme and employ some Liverpudlian youngsters.

    The decision to hire them was brought about by a recent documentary on how unemployed youths from Toxteth were able to remove a set of wheels in less than 6 seconds without proper equipment, whereas Ferrari's existing crew could only do it in 8 seconds with millions of pounds worth of high tech gear.

    It was thought to be an excellent, bold move by the Ferrari management team as most races are won and lost in the pits, giving Ferrari an advantage overevery other team.

    However, Ferrari got more than they bargained for!

    At the crew's first practice session, not only was the scouse pit crew able to change all four wheels in under 6 seconds but, within 12 seconds, they had re-sprayed, re-badged and sold the car to the Mclaren team for 8 cases of Stella, a bag of weed and some photos of Lewis Hamilton's bird in the shower.

    What's the difference between a Scouser and a coconut?
    One's thick and hairy, and the other's a coconut.

    :D

    (With apologies to any decent, upright, finestanding Liverpudlians on the forum. I didn't mean you.)

    I may have mentioned this before, but on a drive over to Liverpool a couple of months back I passed two huge parallel tall buildings with an enormous carpark.
    The buuldings were completely boarded up.

    It was the old Littlewood's Pools office, a casualty of modern technology and the Lottery.
