Big Red Lobster

[marval]

A seafood restaurant had a sign in the window that read, "Big Lobster Tales, £5 each."

Amazed at the great value, a man stopped in and asked the waitress, "Five pounds each for lobster tails. Is that correct"?

"Yes," she said. "It's our special just for today."

"Well," he said, "They must be little lobster tails."

"No," she replied, "It's the really big lobster."

"Big red lobster tails, £5 each"? he said, amazed. "They must be old lobster tails!"

"No, they're definitely today's."

"Today's big red lobster tails, £5 each"? he repeated, astounded.

"Yes," she insisted.

"Well, here's my five pounds," he said. "I'll take one."

She took the money and led him to a table where she invited him to sit down.

She then sat down next to him, put her hand on his shoulder, leaned over close to him and said, "Once upon a time, there was a really big, red lobster."

He was called Thermy as he tended to get overheated if they threatened a Thermidor.......(pls continue, Ms. Newburg)

Probably better done orally so you can't see the 'tale' at the start!

[marval]

Yes, I agree zebo.

Similar joke to the one about chicken dinners for 20 pence. The waitress brought me a bowl of corn.
