Rather than leaving your festive comedy to the luck of a cardboard tube, we’ve rounded up a selection that is guaranteed to hit home - especially if home is anywhere between Beeston and Bramhope.
Whether you’re a lifelong Loiner or just visiting for the season, these jokes celebrate the unique quirks of our city. We’ve gathered 15 festive funnies that range from genuine "clever" puns to the kind of groan-inducing "dad jokes" that are as much a tradition as over-boiling the sprouts.
We don’t profess to be expert Christmas cracker joke writers, hence why some of them might be far funnier than what’s offered around the Christmas table and others... well... very much “turkeys” for the season.
But who doesn’t like the odd bad joke, right?
