The way I heard your one was an Army Sargeant demanding that of the troops and one solder called out the reply. Only in the version I heard the cook was not called a bastard but another name of four letters and also starting with C.

I have my shoulder to the wheel,
my nose to the grindstone,
I've put my best foot forward,
I've put my back into it,
I'm gritting my teeth,

Now I find I can't do any work in this position!

My doctor asked me why my diet was failing and I was putting on weight. I told him that I've had a lot on my plate lately.

When i first came to Melbourne, I lived in a boarding house. One of the other residents was blind man who was very naive. The manager told us this joke one day and we all laughed, the blind man laughed harder than anyone else. A couple of minutes later he said "I hope you did not mean anything rude by that joke Alan." We all laughed louder than we had at the joke!
