““Four men went fishing. After an hour of sitting on the riverbank, one said, “You won’t believe what I had to do to get permission to come away fishing this weekend. I had to promise my wife that next week I’d redecorate every room in the house!” The second man said,“That’s nothing! I had to promise my wife I’d turf the whole of the back garden and build swings and a slide for the kids.” Man number three smiled. “You don’t know when you’re well off!” he exclaimed. “I had to promise my partner I’d renovate the whole of the kitchen for her and build a pergola in the garden!” They continued to fish in silence. Then they realized the fourth man hadn’t spoken. “Hey, Jerry!” said the first man. “What did you have to do to be able to come away fishing?” Jerry shrugged casually. “I just set my alarm for five-thirty,” he said. “When it went off, I turned it off, cuddled up to my wife, and asked, ‘Fishing or sex?’ She turned over and said, ‘Don’t forget your jacket.””
