“When you start shaving with toothpaste you know its time to visit the optician.”
Peter Barns June 2010
Charlie was the tightest man
He’d never spend a cent.
He’d scrimp and save
And go without.
Not even pay his rent.
His wife, frustrated, said to him,
“Now Charlie this must stop.
You’re now so blind
That you can’t see.
Go down the glasses shop.”
But Charlie didn’t think he was,
And money would not waste.
Until one day
He washed himself
Then shaved with his toothpaste.
