The Pun Contest

But I'll tell you what I love doing more than anything: trying to pack myself in a small suitcase. I can hardly contain myself.

 

So I went to the Chinese restaurant and this duck came up to me with a red rose and says "Your eyes sparkle like diamonds". I said "Waiter, I asked for a-ROMATIC duck".

 

But I'm in great mood tonight because the other day I entered a competition and I won a years supply of Marmite ......... one jar.

 

So I rang up British Telecom, I said "I want to report a nuisance caller", he said "Not you again".
