The Sultan's son

MonkieSocks

The Sultan of Brunei was getting a bit cheesed off as he had 6 children, all girls, and therefore had no son and heir.

Imagine his joy then, when one of his wives presented him with his only son and heir.

Just before his son's sixth birthday, the Sultan took him to one side and said,

"Son, I am very proud of you. Anything you want, I shall get for you".

His son replied, "Daddy, I would like an aeroplane".

Not wanting to do anything by halves, his father bought him British Airways.

Just before his son's seventh birthday, the Sultan took him to one side.

"Son, you are my pride and joy. Anything you want, I shall get for you."

His son replied, "Daddy, I would like a boat".

Not wanting to do anything by halves, his father bought him P&O Ferries.

Just before his son's eight birthday, the Sultan took him to one side.

"Son, you bring so much happiness into my life. Anything you want, shall get for you."

His son replied, "Daddy, I would like something to watch films on".

Not wanting to do anything by halves, his father bought him MGM Studios and their cinemas, where he watched all his favourite Western Movies.

Just before his son's ninth birthday, the Sultan took him to one side.

"Son, you are an inspiration to us all. Anything you want, I shall get for you."

His son, who had caught the 'Western' movie bug, replied,

"Daddy, I would like a cowboy outfit".

Not wanting to do anything by halves, his father went and bought him the England football team.

Fabio Capello was wheeling his shopping trolley across the supermarket car park when he noticed an old lady struggling with her bags of shopping.


He stopped and asked, "Can you manage dear?"

To which the old lady replied, "No way.

You got yourself into this mess, don't ask me to sort it out!"

Just to ressurect a very old one...

A boy is in a child custody battle and the judge asks him who he would like to live with
"Would you like to live with your father?"
"No! He beats me!"
"Then, would you like to live with your mother?"
"No, she beats me too!"
"Then who would you like to live with?"
"The English! They never beat anyone!"
