A married couple in their middle 50s was celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant, when there suddenly appeared a beautiful tiny fairy at their table. “For being such an exemplary married couple and for being faithful to each other for all this time, I am here to grant you each one wish.”
“Oh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband” said the wife.
The fairy waved her magic wand and - poof! - two tickets for the Queen Mary II luxury liner appeared in her hands.
Then it was the husband’s turn. He thought for a moment and said: “Well, this is all very romantic, however an opportunity like this will never come again. I’m sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger.”
Both the wife and the fairy were deeply disappointed, but a promise is a promise and a wish is a wish … The fairy gracefully waved her magic wand and - poof! -the husband became 92-years-old.
The moral of this story is that men who are ungrateful husbands should remember that fairies are female.
