The Street Light
The Ossie Moore jokes are harder to come by than when I was very young. It seemed back then that every one had a Ossie joke to tell. I notice while trying to fine Ossie that some people spell his name as Ossey and some people call it as if it were spelt Aussie. They tell me if you want to hear some good old fashion Ossie Moore jokes you only have to find one of the older comedians on the island. Someone who can still remember Gear Box and the Steel Donkey.
