True story: a friend was supposed to be going on a trip to Germany with his wife and her sister but he was too ill and they went without him. He was hobbling back from the newsagents when a neighbour stopped him and said;'I thought you were away this week'. He explained,she said 'I bet you're fed up then.' 'Yes' he replied, 'I'm off to the library for a book on euthanasia.'
'Oh I thought she'd gone to Gemany'.
