Coo that takes me back.

Anyone remember the show with Frank Muir and Denis Norden where they used to
finish with long rambling shaggy dog stories? Was it "My word"?

Yes.
If you're in the US and listen to PBS radio (about the only
thing worth listening to out there), it still plays the repeats.
Came as quite a surpise to some US colleagues that most of the
participants are now dead - they hadn't realised how long ago
they were recorded.

Anyway, heavily edited, there was a story told by Denis about a man who went
to his doctor complaining about strange noises coming from his, um, rear
passage. When quizzed by the doctor he explained that every time he broke
wind is sounded like a japanese motorcycle. The doctor enquired as to
whether he had been drinking Absinthe lately to which the man replied "Why
yes. How did you know?"

The doctor replied, "Surely everyone knows that Absinthe makes the fart go
Honda...."

I'll get my coat too....
