Pre-Marriage Course

At a recent pre-Marriage course in Dublin recently at the part dealing with communication in the marriage a couple - who I'll call "Tom" and his fiancée who we'll call "Mary" listened. We'll call them that to save John and Sarah's embarrassment.

Anyway to the instructor, "It is essential that husbands and wives know the things that are important to each other."

So he asked "Tom" (yes, John it really was you), "Can you tell us your fiancée's favourite flower?"

"Tom" leaned over, touched his wife-to-be's arm gently and whispered, "It's self-raising, isn't it?"

The rest of the story gets rather ugly, so I'll stop it right here......
