Absolutely idiots. Even if some of the jokes were too near the knuckle for delicate souls there would be no need to read them out. This smacks of censorship. The book is legal presumably so what's the problem. What would happen if they were asked to repair a RAF log book detailing a pilot's missions in WW2 is this also offensive?
