    Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner, the World's formost authority on wasps was walking past an Oxfam shop when an item on display caught his eye. It was an LP of Wasp Sounds. Excitedly he went into the shop and intruduced himself to the assistant.

    "Hello", he said "I am Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner the world formost authority on wasps and I an interested in the the LP you have for sale in the window. Would you mind playing the first track for me?"

    "Certainly, Sir" replied the assistant, and proceeded to play the requested track.
    A puzzled look came over Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner's face as he listened.
    "I am Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner the world formost authority on wasps and I'm quite sure something is wrong. That is not a wasp. Would you please play the second track for me?"

    The assistant duly put on the second track.
    Once again a puzzled look came over Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner's face.
    "I am Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner the world formost authority on wasps and now I'm certain that something is wrong. That is most certainly not a wasp. Would you please play the third track for me?"

    The assistant obliged him once more.
    The look of puzzlement changed to one of annoyance.
    "I am Dr. Reginald P. Chalmondley-Warner the world formost authority on wasps and I can categorically state that none of those tracks were wasp sounds. Are you trying to make a fool of me young man?"
    "Certainly not, Sir, let me check the record again"
    "Ooops my mistake, that was the 'B' side"

    Reminds me of the one where the old woman comes into the pet shop and says to the assistant.

    "How much are the dogs?"
    "€150, madam"
    "Oh merciful hour, that's expensive, and the cats?"
    "€80, madam"
    "Mother of Divine God, still too much, what about the mice?"
    "€10 madam"
    "Oh Sacred Heart, that's still too much for an old woman like me, what about the wasps, how much are they?"
    "Wasps? We don't sell wasps madam!"
    "Are ya sure? You've got two in the window!"

    :D
