    A Welsh rugby fan, a Irish rugby fan and an English fan are all in Saudi Arabia, sharing a smuggled crate of booze when, all of a sudden,Saudi police rush in and arrest them.The mere possession of alcohol is a severe offence in Saudi Arabia,so for the terrible crime of actually being caught consuming the booze,they are all sentenced to death!

    However, after many months and with the help of very good lawyers, they are able to successfully appeal their sentences down to life imprisonment.By a stroke of luck, it was a Saudi national holiday the day their trial finished, and the extremely benevolent Sheikh decided they could be released after receiving just 20 lashes each of the whip.

    As they were preparing for their punishment, the Sheikh announced: "It's my first wife's birthday today, and she has asked me to allow each of you one wish before your whipping."
    The Welsh fan was first in line, he thought for a while and then said: "Please tie a pillow to my back." This was done, but the pillow only lasted 10 lashes before the whip went through. When the punishment was done he had to be carried away bleeding and crying with pain.

    The Englishman was next up. After watching the Welshman in horror he said smugly: "Please fix two pillows to my back."
    But even two pillows could only take 15 lashes before the whip went through again and the the Enlgishmen was soon led away wimpering loudly (as they do).

    The Irishman was the last one up, but before he could say anything, the Sheikh turned to him and said: "You are from a most beautiful part of the world and your culture is one of the finest in the world. For this, you may have two wishes!". "Thank you, your Most Royal and Merciful highness", The Irishman replied. "In recognition of your kindness, my first wish is that you give me not 20, but 100 lashes."

    "Not only are you an honorable, handsome and powerful man, you are also very brave". The Sheikh said with an admiring look on his face. "If 100 lashes is what you desire, then so be it. And your second wish, what is it to be?" the Sheikh asked.


    "Tie the ENGLISHMAN to my back."

    Tut tut - that's not very realistic: it would have to be a pretty shït pillow not to withstand any number of lashes you are to give it.
