A married couple in their early 60s were out celebrating their 35th wedding anniversary in a quiet, romantic little restaurant.
Suddenly, a tiny yet beautiful fairy appeared on their table and said, “For being such an exemplary married couple and for being faithful to each other for all this time, I will grant you each a wish.
“Ooh, I want to travel around the world with my darling husband.” said the wife.
The fairy moved her magic stick and – abracadabra! – two tickets for the new Queen Mary 2 luxury liner appeared in her hands.
Now it was the husbands turn. He thought for a moment and said: “Well this is all very romantic, but an opportunity like this only occurs once in a lifetime, so, I’m sorry my love, but my wish is to have a wife 30 years younger than me.”
The wife, and the fairy, were deeply disappointed, but a wish is a wish… So the fairy made a circle with her magic stick and -abracadabra! – the husband became 92 years old.
The moral of this story: “Fairies are female.”

Scientists discover a giant prawn thousands of metres under the sea in New Zealand’s Kermadic Trench.
The ‘supergiant amphipod’, as it has been described, measures almost 12 inches in length – ten times the size of the normal species – and was found 4.3 miles under the surface of the ocean.
Scientists, who say the crustacean is closely related to the sandhopper, were dumbfounded by their find.
“It’s always great to be on a ship, where something unusual comes up on the deck and when there’s just that little moment, it only lasts a microsecond when everyone looks at one another and you know that you’ve got something special,” said Ashely Rowden from the New Zealand Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA)
Mr Rowan added that they had many questions about the size of the giant prawn.
“Is it because of the environmental conditions of that location, or those specific locations of where the records have come from, is it to do with the food environment, so lots of questions start spinning around straight away,” he said.
Supergiant amphipods have been found only once before, in the 1980s, and NIWA said it has yet to determine if the latest catch was a new species.
