A bloke's wife went missing while scuba diving for shellfish on the Australian
coast, so he reported her as missing to the police. He spent a terrible night
wondering what could have happened to her.
Next morning there was a knock at the door and he was confronted by a
couple of pretty miserable policemen, the old Sarge and a younger Constable.
The Sarge said: "Mate, we have some news for you, unfortunately some
really bad news, but, some good news and maybe some really good
news."
"Well," said the bloke, You'd better let me have it both barrels,
what's the really bad news?"
The Sarge said: "I'm really sorry pal, but your wife is dead. Young
Bill here found her lying at about five fathoms in a little cleft in
the reef. He got a line around her and we pulled her up, but she was
dead."
The bloke was naturally pretty distressed to hear this and got a bit
tearful. After a few minutes he pulled himself together and asked
what the good news was.
The Sarge said: "Well when we got your wife up there were quite a
few really good sized crayfish and a swag of big edible crabs
clinging to her . . . . . so we've brought you your share." and he
handed the bloke a bag with a couple of nice crays and four or five
crabs in it.
"Gee thanks," said the bloke, "They're bloody beaut!!! . . . . . . I
guess it's an ill wind and all that. Now, what's the really good
news?"
"Well", the Sarge said, "Me and young Bill get off duty at
around 11 o'clock and we're gonna go back to the reef and pull her
up again . . . . . . you fancy comin' with us?!"
