It was Edna's 100th birthday and she was waiting for the postman to call,
she heard the garden gate go and she rushed to the door. "Hello postie"
she said as he handed her some bills. "Anything else for me?" "Nope" said
the postman.

"Oh I thought you might have brought a telegram, it's a special day today"
said Edna, "We don't bring telegrams any more, it's done by a bloke on a
moped" said the postman.

An hour or so later Edna heard the unmistakable sound of a moped so she
rushed to the door and flung it wide..."Have you got a telegram for me?"
she asked hopefully. "Are you Mrs Jones?" said the moped rider. "Yes" said
Edna "It's a special day today, could you do me a favour and sing it to
me" she asked. "Sorry, I'm not allowed to open it, it has to done by the
recipient" said the moped rider. "Well if I open it, will you sing it to
me..it's a once in a lifetime moment" said Edna.

The moped rider took the telegram, read it, and said "Are you sure about
this?"

"Yes, I'm certain" said Edna.

"OK then if you say so" said the rider..."here goes..." - "Da Da Da Da
Da Daaa....Your sister is dead , she fell under a bus ...and they want you
to view the reamainsssssaaaa!"
