We like a laugh at BaCStage, as you may have noticed… then again, you may not.  Anyway, in the best of festive tradition I’d like to share with you, our loyal reader, a joke worthy of the very finest Christmas cracker:

A shepherd and his sheepdog are out on the farm.  “Round up the sheep, please” says the shepherd, “and count them while you’re there, make sure none have gone missing”.  The sheepdog trots away.  A few minutes later the sheepdog returns.  “There are 40 sheep” says the sheepdog.  “40?” says the shepherd, “I thought we only had 38”, to which the sheepdog replies “I rounded them up”.

Whatever you celebrate at this time of year, BaCStage would like to wish you a good one.  Cheers!
