Yet again, Tim Vine wins the Dave award for funniest joke at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. Yet again, it failed to raise the slightest smile for me. I've decided to sell my Hoover... well, it was just collecting dust. Hmmmm.

As usual, your correspondent was more moved by some of the runners up:

• Always leave them wanting more, my uncle used to say to me. Which is why he lost his job in disaster relief. Mark Watson
• I was given some Sudoku toilet paper. It didn't work. You could only fill it in with number ones and number twos. Bec Hill
• I wanted to do a show about feminism. But my husband wouldn't let me. Ria Lina
• This show is about perception and perspective. But it depends how you look at it. Felicity Ward
