It was love at first sight. Within a week of meeting, John and
Mary decided to get married.
“But we don’t really know anything about each other,” said
Mary.
“Never mind,” replied John. “We’ll learn as we go along.”
So the couple got married and went to Spain for their
honeymoon where they spent a blissful few days until one
morning as they were sunbathing around the pool.
John suddenly got up, climbed to the very top of the diving
board and performed a very intricate dive involving back
flips and a double pike.
“Wow!” said Jane, when he returned. “That was truly
amazing!”
“Well, I used to be the British Diving Champion,” replied
John. “You see, didn’t I say we’d find out more about each
other as time went by?”
A little later, Jane got up, dived into the pool and swam four
lengths without stopping.
“Heh!” said John, much impressed, that was fantastic. “Were
you in the British Squad?”
“Oh no,” she replied. “I spent a few years in Venice where I
was on the game and my patch included both sides of the
canal.”
