Little Johnny and Swimming

Little Johnny is approached by the lifeguard at the public swimming pool. ‘You’re not allowed to pee in the pool,’ says the lifeguard. ‘I’m going to report you.’ ‘But everyone pees in the pool,’ said little Johnny. ‘Maybe,’ says the lifeguard. ‘But not from the diving board!’

Little Johnny to mother: ‘Mummy, can I go swimming?’ Mother: ‘Certainly not. The sea’s too rough, there’s a terrible rip-tide and a dangerous offshore current, and I’ve heard this coast is infested with jellyfish and sharks.’ Little Johnny: ‘But Daddy’s gone swimming!’ Mother: ‘I know, but he has excellent life insurance.’
