Best laugh I've had today! My mother and her sisters would sit around the dining table and tell jokes like this frequently! Wish I remembered some of them.
We love this one that we learned from you and especially how you tell it. Now, in our house, I only have to say Close enough! with a puckish smile and we crack up.
My grandfather's brother Ben was a customs officer in Winnipeg. He was a London transplant like all his siblings(except one) and probably shared the same dry humor.
Maybe he turned a blind eye to people sneaking out
Hm. Maybe I should try that!

This is wonderful! The Catholics, Quakers, and Presbyterians in my family could have used more humor like this! I love picturing everyone's faces.
