Santa and Banta were at a graveyard. Banta starts reading the gravestones. 'Santa,' he says, 'Would you look at this! A chap is here who was 90 when he died!'

'Who's that?' says Banta.

'Somebody called Rajinder from Bhatinda,' he replies. Banta says, 'Never mind him, there's a fellow here called Bhupinder who was 99 when he died! From Patiala of all places!'


'Well, that's nothing!' says Santa. 'Check out what's written on this person's stone here right beside the main gate! The stone says 147!'

'147? That's amazing!' says Banta. 'Who was he?'

'Well according to the stone, someone called Miles from Amritsar.'
