Getting Cement over you

I wonder if this will boost your confidence.
One of my work mates son's works for a floor laying company. At 2.10am last night a neighbour noticed that his concrete mixer was being nicked. She banged on the adjoining wall to try and wake him, She stopped though when she saw a Police car approaching and was highly reassured the thieves would be caught red handed (well grey handed as after all it was cement) The police car slowed down (hooray thought the neighbour) ...then drove off. The thieves managed to hook the mixer and drive off onto the road. As they turned the mixer broke loose. The original Police car that had gone past, turned around and came back. The thieves by this time were re hooking it back onto their van. Hooray thought the neighbour, they have got them this time. the Police car slowed down.......and drove off. So did the thieves with the very expensive mixer?
You could not make that up could you.
What do Frank Sinatra and Dracula have in common????
Not a joke actually. When Bella Lugosi died the family did not have enough money for the Funeral. So Frank stepped in and quietly paid for the lot. Bella was buried in his full Dracula kit?

Played last night and all was ok with the lip. 71 years ago The Wizard of OZ was filmed and it was apt last night that we played Over the Rainbow. This number is heard more and more at Funerals but usually the late Eva Cassidy is singing it (not a patch on Judy though)
