I don't know the answer
British humour has a lot of irony...you have to consider what we are "implying"
There are 7 Planes Of Existance:

Sorry Nigel, your wrong with the Mancunian joke.. In Manchester, a lot of Mancunians use the word "safe" as a general term for good, trustworthy and stuff like that...When he says "What do you call a Mancunian in a bank? - Safe!" He is implying that mancunians are dangerous/untrustworthy in a normal circumstance...but in a bank..safe!

"ee's a friend of ahh kid, so ee's safe. An eel get it sorted, get it boxed off"
An English man walks into a bar whilst on holiday in America and has a few beers, after a while he notices another man at the end of the bar who has the unfortunate predicament of having a very small head. So he marches over, drunken and eager to speak to this person. And offers to buy this man a drink.
The two men start talking and after a few hours of chit chat the Englishman plucks up the courage to ask his new friend how he came about to have such a small head.
"It's a long story", the man with the small head explained. But shrugged and decided to tell his story.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ His Story ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When I was younger, I used to fly with the US Air Force. Flew in a F16-Falcon back in my younger days, and was pretty good at it too. But got a little sloppy and too cocky for my own good.
Then one day while out on a test mission, I had a faulty engine and had to bail out of this thing. I parachuted down and landed somewhere in the Pacific, a good thousand miles from the mainland. The water was too much for me and I blacked out, finally waking up on this amazing looking beach, on a small island with this beautiful Mermaid next to me.
The Mermaid had saved my life and took me to shore, end cared for me until I woke up.
She then explained that as I had met a Mermaid I was entitled to one wish, anything in the world could be mine. So, I thought about it, and I was the son of a wealthy family so money was not my wish. I still had my transponder so I knew I was going to get rescued by a ship sooner or later. So, my wish was to have Sex with this Mermaid.
However, she explained this was not possible as she was part fish and we could not "connect". And so I then wished for a little head instead....
