Wrong Nelson
The Nelson Tower was built by the Forres Trafalgar Club in commemoration of Nelson’s victory at the Battle of Trafalgar in 1805. The Tower was opened in 1812 and is the most northerly of all Britain’s Nelson monuments.
Conceived as a memorial to the many Scots who fought and died in the battles of Trafalgar, The Nile and Copenhagen it was the first such monument to be erected in the UK to Nelson.
Nelson was at home watching TV when there was a knock at the door. A Japanese delivery man was clutching a clipboard, pointing to a truck full of car exhausts in the driveway and yelling, "You sign, you sign!"The bewildered president will do no such thing and slams the door.
The next day, the man is back, waving a clipboard under the great man's nose, gesturing to a truckload of brake pads and insisting, "You sign, you sign!"
Nelson gets rid of the man again, but next day he's back with two truckloads of car parts, once again insisting that the president sign for the goods.
Mandela loses his temper and yells, "Look, I don't want these. Do you understand? You have the wrong person.
"Puzzled, the Japanese man consults his clipboard and asks, "Ah soh. You not Nissan Main dealer?"
