    Old Man Goes to France

    An elderly British gentleman of 83 arrived in Paris by plane.

    At the French immigration desk, the man took a few minutes to locate his passport in his carry-on bag.

    "You have been to France before, Monsieur?" the Immigration officer asked, sarcastically.

    The elderly gentleman admitted he had been to France previously.

    "Then you should know well enough to have your passport ready."

    The British gentleman says, "The last time I was here, I didn't have to show it."

    "Impossible. The British always have to show their passports on arrival in France!"

    The elderly gentleman gave the French Immigration Officer a long hard look.

    Then he quietly explained;

    "Well, the last time I was here, I came ashore on Juno Beach on D-Day in June 1944, and I couldn't find any Frenchmen to show it to."

    Man: Father I have sinned....during the war I kept a German man safe in my loft..

    Priest: I really don't think that's a sin you know... You probably saved the mans life!

    Man: But father, I made him pay £100 a day to stay there..

    Priest: Goodness me! That's really rather mean of you! Still, you probably saved the mans life, and God will forgive you..

    Man: Thankyou father, but I have one more problem, when do you think I should tell him that the war is over?
