'If you're the kind of person who loves to tell old jokes but can never find anyone who hasn't heard them before, then I'm your woman. It's a constant source to delight to certain friends of mine that I've never heard even the hoariest of old gags. I laugh like a drain when they tell me the one about the Irishman, Englishman and Australian. When they come sidling up and whisper 'Hey Gayle you heard the one about...' and my reply is 'no', their faces light up in a mixture of wonder and disbelief. Disbelief mainly, because they can't believe a woman of my vintage who's obviously been round the block more than a few times, hasn't heard these jokes, limericks, or bawdy rugby songs before.'
