Thought for Boxing Day

Spirit of Boxing Day:

It was just after Christmas and the judge was in a festive mood. He asked the prisoner in the dock, 'What are you charged with?'

The prisoner replied, 'Doing my sales shopping too early.'

'That's no crime', said the magistrate. 'Just how early were you doing this shopping?'

'Before the shop opened', answered the prisoner.
