Accordion to a recent survey, replacing words with the names of musical instruments in a sentence often goes undetected.

A St. Andrews Day joke.
Did you hear about the Scotsman who put his kilt into the agitator washing machine and forgot about it as he devoured his haggis meal, reading some Burn's poems and downing copious amounts of single malt whisky?
It was ruined and he couldn't do a fling with it.

I was lonely until I glued a coffee-cup on top of my car.
Now everyone waves at me !

I made a paper aeroplane, but it just hovered in one spot like a helicopter.
Then I remembered it was stationery.

Did you hear about the cowboy who wore brown paper trousers and a brown paper shirt?
He was had up for rustling.
(My wife is responsible for that joke)

There's a trend on social media where you hide a breath mint underneath your tie clip and use it just before a goodnight kiss.
It's the TikTok tie-tack Tic Tac tactic.

Husband (trying to be helpful): "How many degrees should I set the wash to?"
Wife (recovering from 'flu): "What does it say on the T-shirt?"
Husband: "Pink Floyd..."

I once wanted to become a dentist but I was told by a Scottish dentist, Phil McCafferty, that the job would be rather boring, but, then, once you get used to the drill, it could be filling ?

God called Noah one day and said, "Noah, I need you to build another ark."
"What, like the last one?" asked Noah.
"Erm, no - I need this one to have 6 floors."
"6 floors! OK, you're the boss. And do I lead the animals in two by two like last time?"
"No, this time I want you to just take fish on board."
Noah, perplexed, asked, "Fish! What sort of fish?"
"Just carp." said God.
"OK, why just carp?" asked Noah.
God said "Because I've always wanted a multi-story carp ark."

Don't tell me about secrets in the garden.
The potatoes have eyes.
The corn has ears,

I was invited by my mates to a combined party to celebrate the Chinese New Year and Burns Night.
It was called a Chinese Burns night.
I didn't want to go but they twisted my arm.

My latest buy was a dog from the local blacksmith.
As soon as I got him home he made a bolt for the door.

I didn't realise that cottage cheese
was actually made from cheese.

Did you hear about the man who took some old dirty and stained bank notes and put them in his washing machine?
He wanted to do some money laundering.
