A couple had been trying for children for many years without any luck. One day their parish preist told them that he was going to Rome for five years but that while he was there he would pray everyday for them and keep a lighted candle in St.Peter's.
So a few years went by and eventually the priest returned home. He went round to see the couple and as he walked up the garden path, he spotted a pair of twins playing on a swing. As the door of the house opened, he saw the poor harassed woman, heavily pregnant, with two small babies in her arms.
"Why Father!" she exclaimed, "we didn't know you'd returned."
"Yes, a week ago," he replied, "and I thought I'd come round to see how you are. I see you've been blessed with children. "Where's your husband?"
"He's gone to Rome," she replied, "to blow out that blo*dy candle!"
