Old Sod Rest Home



Jacob, age 92, and Rebecca, age 89 had lived at Old Sods for a number of years, and had fallen in love. Deciding to 'tie the knot', they are all excited about their decision to get married. They go for a stroll to discuss the wedding and on the way they pass a chemist. Jacob suggests they go in.
Jacob addresses the man behind the counter: "Are you the owner?"
The pharmacist answers "Yes".
Says Jacob: "We're about to get married. Do you sell heart medication?"
Pharmacist: "Of course we do."
Jacob: "How about
medicine for circulation?"
"All kinds."
"Medicine for rheumatism, scoliosis?"
"Definitely."
"How about Viagra?"
"Of course."

"Medicine for memory lapses, arthritis, jaundice?"
"Yes, a large variety. The works."

"What about vitamins, sleeping pills, Lucozade, antidotes for Parkinson's disease?"
"Absolutely."
"You sell wheelchairs and Zimmer frames?"
"All speeds and sizes."

Jacob turns to Rebecca and says "I think this one will do."
"Excuse me Sir" say the Chemist, "Are you wanting any of the items you mentioned?"
"Not at the moment, but we want to recommend your shop on our wedding present list."
