It is a big call, but I reckon I can lay claim to one of the best ever Dad's jokes. It does require a bit of a set up to provide the context, but it is worth it!
A couple of months ago, Jane and I were had Peter visiting, and we were taking him to the Royal Queensland golf course. We drove down Nudgee Road, with Doomben Racecourse on our left, and Eagle Farm on our right. Jane, noticing the proximity of the race courses to the airport, said "doesn't having the airport so close annoy the horses?"
Serendipitously, at exactly this point in time, we crossed a pedestrian crossing that had a sign that warned "Horses cross here".
So, in response to Jane's question I came back with something along the lines of "Of course they are annoyed - look at the sign!"
Isn't it brilliant?
