The Marriage Box

A young man asked his girl friend to marry him, she agreed on the condition that he never looked into the box that she kept by her bed. He agreed and they were married.

The years rolled by until eventually they reached their 50th wedding anniversary, the man turned to his wife and said :- "For all these years I have kept my promise and I have never looked in your box, don't you think I could look now?

"Well she said I don't suppose it will do any harm"

He opened the box and inside he found 2 eggs and £1000.

"Whats with the 2 eggs he asked?"

His wife replied "Well every time I was unfaithful to you I put an egg in the box"

He wasn't very happy about it but thought well twice in 50 years wasn't so bad.

"And what about the £1000 ?" he asked.

Well she said . "Every time I got to a dozen eggs I sold them".
