I was showing my mate some of my Grandfather’s mementoes in his living room, not long after he had passed away.
I said, “This is his old knife. He stabbed a German to death with this.”
My mate said, “World War 2?”
I said, “No, last year in Majorca. They had a row over a sun lounger.”

It’s the truth. 🙂
“My grandfather was killed during the Battle of the Somme. He wasn’t in the Army; just camping nearby and went across to complain abut the noise.”
