#6 A giant of the 20th century.

TRUE STORY:

Lady T's husband is a passenger on a train bound for London. A group of folk "on leave" from a mental institution board the train. A woman in charge is doing a head count of her wards. One...two...three...four...five..."Excuse me sir, but who are you? she says to Lady T's husband. Without skipping a beat he replies: Why madam I'm married to the PM of England!!! The lady smiles and says SIX...seven...etc..

I'm told Lady T had as great a sense of humor as her husband.
