PUPILS at St Woolos Primary School, Newport, had our reporter Tom Whiteley in stitches when he asked them if they knew any good jokes. Here are a few of the quips from our budding comedians:

"Why didn't the skeleton go to the New Year's party? Because he had no body to go with!" Jordan Thompson, eight, of Newport.

"What's a frog's best drink? Croaka-cola." Ali Hussain, seven, Newport.

"A man at a party goes with a girl on his back. It's a fancy-dress party and he says he's come as a snail and someone says 'What's that on your back?' and he says 'It's Michelle'." Sam Ahmed, ten, Newport.

"Why did the orange stop going down the road? Because it ran out of juice." Aafiah Saddiq, nine, Newport.

"Why didn't the zebra cross the road? Because there wasn't a zebra crossing." Kayleigh Hooper, six, Newport.

"A man had pains in his chest and the doctor said 'The bad news is you've got Yellow-22 and you're going to die in five hours time'.

"So he goes home to his wife and she says oh well, we may as well enjoy ourselves, why don't we go to the bingo. So they go and he wins everything all night and the manager says to him: 'I don't know how you've done it - you must be the luckiest man in the world'. "The man says 'Lucky? I've got Yellow-22,' and the manager says 'I don't believe it, not the raffle as well'." Marcus Hughes, eight, Newport.
