Ever had your pick nicked?

Posted on 19 November, 2013 by jb

A teddy bear is working on a building site. He goes for his tea break and when he returns,he notices his pick has been stolen. The bear goes ballistic and reports the theft to the foreman.

The foreman grins ” I forgot to tell you, today’s the day the teddy bears have their pick-nicked.”

Waitemata volcanic basalt meets….. SAND? No rocks? And the sand’s probably imported from China, too.
Oh well.
