a South African, Aussie & Englishman -

[Koper]

A South African was sitting with an Aussie and an Englishman in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled barrel of beer, when all of a sudden the police entered and arrested them. They were initially given the death sentence but contested this and were finally imprisoned for life. But as it

was a national holiday, the Sheikh decided they should be released after each receiving 20 lashes of the whip.

 

As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh suddenly said: "It's my first wife's birthday today and she asked me to allow

each of you one wish before your whipping, but you can not wish to not be whipped!"

 

The Englishman thought for a second then said: "Please tie a pillow to my back before whipping." This was done but the pillow only lasted 10

lashes before the whip went through. The Englishman cried in pain.

 

The Aussie saw this and said: "Please tie 2 pillows to my back before whipping." This was done and lasted for the whole 20 lashes.

The Aussie stood up smiling.

 

The South African saw this but before he could make his wish, the Sheikh said: "As you are from South Africa with all that crime, a cricket team who is always losing in a final and a rugby team who can't win anything, you are permitted to have two wishes!"

 

The South African thought for a second, then said: "Thank you most Royal and Merciful Highness. My first wish is to receive a hundred

lashes with the strongest, toughest whip available."

 

"If you so desire," the Sheikh replies with a questioning look on his face, "and your second wish?"

 

"Tie the Aussie to my back"

hehe, sorry andrew, its not about cricket or rugby, its about the rivalry between us, you probably can take three NFL teams that play NBA as well and rewrite the joke so that americans can understand or whom ever

 

 

us british colonist countries (whatever you call it:rolleyes: ) are all big rivals when it comes to sport eg. cricket and rugby
