Morris and his wife,Esther,went to the funfair every year.And every year,Morris would say,"Esther,I'd like to ride in that helicopter".
Estger always replied,"Yes,it looks fun,Morris,but that helicopter ride is £50-and £50 is £50".
One year later,Esther and Morris went to the fair again.Morris said,"Esther,I'm 85years old.If I don't ride that copter now,I might never get another chance".Ahain Esther gives the same story.
The pilot overheard the couple.He said,"Folkls, I'll make you a deal.I'll take you both for a ride.If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and not say a word,I won't charge you.But if you say 1word,it's £50".Morris and Esther agree and went up.The pilot did all kinds of fancy manoevers,but not a word was heard.When they landed,the pilot turned to Morris and said,
"Blimey!I did everything I could to get you to yell out,but you didn't.I'm impressed!"
Morris replied,"Well,I was going to say something when Esther fell out halfway,but £50 is £50".
