Three men were sitting on a bench high on a cliff

overlooking the sea when one of them spotted an old bottle

hidden in some undergrowth. He pulled it out, undid the

cork and a genie appeared.

“I will grant each of you one wish,” he said. “You will fling

yourself off the cliff calling out whatever you would like and

you will land in a boat full of that wish.”

So the first man jumped off and shouted “Money” and sure

enough he landed in a boat full of £50 notes.

The second man jumped off and shouted “Beautiful girls”

and sure enough he landed in a boat of beautiful girls.

Then it was the turn of the third man who was a bit simple

and had forgotten what he was supposed to do. He took a

flying leap off the cliff and as he went down he shouted

“Whee!”
