We have had some good cracker jokes in the Chamoisian household this Christmas. Our favourite so far:

Q: How do you make gold soup?
A: Put in 24 carrots.

Any specially good (or specially dreadful) cracker jokes other shipmates would like to share?

We had some pretty bad ones at our office Christmas meal, one I had to explain to my Spanish colleague was:
There's been reports of a big hole in the ground. Local police are looking into it.

They pulled some crackers on one or two of the BBC Radio 4 programmes I was listening to, and a few of the jokes were the same as we had in ours!

Thankfully, much groaning was had cracker-jokes-wise where I was - which I always rather enjoy as a group bonding experience. [Biased]

One of those I care to remember:

- What do ghosts wear when it rains?
- Kaghouls.

The joke in mine this year wasn't too bad:

Q. Why did the golfer wear two pairs of pants?*

A. In case he got a hole in one.

*I think they meant trousers not underpants though I suppose that could work too.

I was confused there for a minute wondering why ghosts would wear porridge. Obviously I'm a bit tired after the Christmas celebrations.

Wait - I've got another one, which I think is a classic:

Q: What is a ghost's favourite food?

A: Ghoulash.

There was an erudite one reported in my paper from a pack of crackers reviewed by comedians.

Why did the chicken cross the Moebius strip?

To get to the same side.

Despite being fully stocked with crackers for the next few years, I was sorely tempted to buy the expensive lot to find out the rest of the jokes.
