Sidney and Abe, both in their seventies, met in Edgware High Street one Sunday morning. Straight away, they started their gossiping and story telling.
“So, Abe, what’s new?” Sidney asked.
Abe, looking very worried, replied, “I’m sorry to have to say that only this morning I had a great story to tell you, but I’ve forgotten it already.”
Sidney replied, “Well, if it’s about ‘forgotten stories’, I have a better one to tell you than that – if only I could remember it!”
