A husband was nearing retirement age and his wife decided they should celebrate by taking a week-long cruise.

“We can pretend we’re young again,” she said coyly, “and do all the things we used to do when we first met.”

The husband agreed and while his wife made arrangements, he visited the local chemist for a box of condoms and a packet of seasick tablets.

However, when he returned, his wife greeted him with the news that if they booked for one week they’d get another week free! So back to the chemist he went to get another packet of condoms and some more seasick tablets.

Saturday night arrived and to the couple’s joy they had won big on the lottery!

“Oh darling,” beamed the wife, “now we can do what we’ve always wanted to and take our dream around-the-world cruise.”

“Yes dear,” the husband replied, putting on his hat and heading for the door. “Won’t be long.”

At the chemist, he asked for 12 packets of condoms and six packets of seasick tablets.

“You know sir,” said the chemist. “I don’t mean to pry, but if it makes you this sick, why do you keep doing it?”
