Why is it that other people's problems can be so funny? Take Mr M. F. Smith, for example. People won't stop laughing at his name, and it's pretty ordinary - until you find out what the M.F. stands for.
If you think that's a problem, wait till you meet the man with a fishbone stuck in his throat who seeks help in his hour of need - then he really has something to worry about! Then there's the world's loneliest man, the girl who thought she was too small, and Mrs Milligan's awful secrets.
Here are eight very funny stories, full of surprises and delights.
