A
man and his bored eight-year-old
son were walking through a
huge open-plan supermarket.
The boy amused himself by
throwing up a small coin and
catching it in his teeth.
Inevitably he swallowed it
and choked. No-one
knew what to do, to save
his life, until a man in a
neat grey suit leaped up from
the coffee shop, ran to the
boy, and grasped him firmly
by the testicles -
the boy convulsed and spat
out the coin.
His father was most
grateful and thanked the stranger
profusely. 'No-one knew
what to do' he said,
'how did you know? Are you
a Doctor?'
'Goodness me, no' said the
stranger, 'I work in the income
tax department of the Inland
Revenue!'
