My good news.

Had to take the dog to the vet (that's not the good news).

It cost me about £200 (that's not the good news).

Tesco pet insurance sent me a cheque to cover it (that's a bit of good news).

Then I lost the cheque. I searched high and low, left and right, in and out, over and under, every room in the house, every compartment of my laptop bag, every drawer at my desk in work, and finally emptied two very large recycling bags (much to the entertainment of my work colleagues) but to no avail.

Then this morning I found it in a pocket of my other jacket. Woo-hoo, good news!

Not true.

The momentum I had gained before finding the cheque meant that I continued to search 5 more places before getting stopped.

Note the very noticeable amount of F's as opposed to M's on that list, so we're beat before we start Tony.

Why do men die before women?

Because we want to.

Good news!

A little bit misleading, it should say for the first 1000 who tweet not for everyone, they have set a limit of €1000

Excellent!

It would be cruel to suggest that all you had to do was call Tesco and ask them to issue a replacement cheque. Worse, though, it would show no respect at all for the rules of comedy.
