Pope Benedict Resigns

[fbsf]

...Blimey, that's taking giving something up for Lent to a whole new level... :?

 

[EskiBrew]

:lol: - I was just saying to SWMBO that it was only a couple of years back he got elected - turns out it was 8 years ago :shock: - time flies as they say :?

 

[WelshPaul]

Who did he address his letter of resignation to?

 

[anthonyUK]

Did it have anything to do with someone kissing his ring?

 

[chains]

Who did he address his letter of resignation to?

To God obviously. Must of been something like:


Dear God,

I quit...

Smell ya later
The pope

I heard he's thinking about becoming a Jedi

 

[WelshPaul]

I heard he's thinking about becoming a Jedi

He's not on their side!

 

[fbsf]

That *could* explain a lot...

I heard he's thinking about becoming a Jedi

He's not on their side!

:rofl: :rofl:

 

[WelshPaul]

I've heard that John Terry is keen to succeed him.

 

[Dunfie]

Does he have to work his notice our will they put him on Garden of Eden leave.

 

[Jeltz]

You know the economy is in the crapper when even God is laying off staff.

 

[pittsy]

I bet he had to leave , either his hitler youth pension came through (and he had to be retired to claim it) or his Iron cross with oak leaves has finally arrived (conflicting with his dress code),
Makes you think though first time in 600 odd years , has he been up to no good and his past is catching up with him ?

 

[slimreaper]

I think he has had a better offer. I'm sure I saw him in my local last week talking to the landlord. He must be the new barman.

pmsl :rofl: :thumb:

 

[alawlor66430]

He actually got drunk, into a fight and arrested and I have proof

he's only human after all

 

[alawlor66430]

Or was it maybe the objection to his mankini that pushed him to resign

 

[dennisking]

The fact he is the first one to resign in 600 years and they normally work untill they turn their toes up I doubt if he's taken out a pension plan. Could be selling trinkets outside the Vatican next week.

 

[Mark1964]

he blows goats we have proof

 

[xdaver]

Germany wanting to take financial control over the EU maybe hes got a better job offer as head of the 4th
