I felt a little sadder when I read of this. A good guy at heart who never lost touch with reality or his origins.......unlike so many.

Mum & dad used to have a cassette of his act in the car, fond memories of listening to it on the journey to holidays.

2 of my favs, maybe not Frank's but I remember them from the tape.

2 nuns in the bath one says "where's the soap?" the other replies "Yes it does doesn't it"

Irish fella goes into a truck breakers and says
"Have you a drivers door for a 88 Scania?"
"Yes we do, they are £100"
" How much, you can keep it"

So he's goes to the next place and asks the same question they are £50 but they haven't got any, so he goes back to the first...

"How come the guy up the road only want's £50"
"Did you buy one?"
"No he hasn't any"
" Ah", says the chap "when we have none ours are £50 but when we have them they are £100"
"OK" says the irishman " I'll come back when you haven't any"

I miss that tape!!
