[nilesfunnies] A bloke's wife went missing while holidaying on the Australian coast.

A bloke's wife went missing while holidaying on the Australian coast. He
spent a terrible night wondering what could have happened to her.

Next morning there was a knock at the door and he was confronted by a
couple of pretty miserable policemen, the old Sarge and a younger
Constable.

The Sarge said: "Mate, we have some news for you, unfortunately some
really bad news, but, some good news and maybe some really good news."

"Well," says the bloke, "You'd better let me have it both
barrels, what's the bad news?"

The Sarge said, "I'm really sorry pal, but your wife is dead. Young
Bill here found her lying at about five fathoms in a little cleft in the
reef. He got a line around her and we pulled her up, but she was dead."

The bloke was naturally pretty distressed to hear this and had a bit of a
turn. After a few minutes he pulled himself together and asked what the
good news was.

The sarge said, "Well when we got your wife up there were quite a few
really good sized crays and a swag of edible crabs in and around her
swimsuit, so we've brought you your share."

And he handed the bloke a bag with a couple of nice crays and four or five
crabs in it. "Gee thanks," said the man. "They're bloody
beaut... I guess it's an ill wind and all that. Now, what's the really
good news?"

"Well", the Sarge said, "Me and young Bill here get off duty
at around 11 o'clock and we're gonna shoot over there and pull her up
again!... you fancy comin' with us?"
