The return of King Jonny!

On a day where Jonny Wilkinson returned to English rugby and almost single-handedly won the Calcutta Cup for England, the following (sadly untrue) story is told in his honour.

An aircraft is about to crash !

There are five passengers on board, but unfortunately only 4 parachutes.

The first passenger says, "I'm Jonny Wilkinson, the best fly-half in Britain. The English need me, it would be unfair to them if I died". So he takes the first parachute and jumps.

The second passenger, Cherie Booth, says, "I am the wife of the self declared saviour of the western world. I am also the most dedicated woman in the world." She takes one of the parachutes and jumps.

The third passenger, George W. Bush, says, " I am the President of the United States of America. I have a huge responsibility in world politics,and apart from that, I am the most intelligent President in the history of the country and I have a responsibility to my people not to die." So he takes a parachute and jumps.

The fourth passenger, the Pope, says to the fifth passenger, a ten year old schoolboy, "I am already old. I have already lived my life, as a good person and a priest I will give you the last parachute".

The boy replies"No problem your popeness, there is also a parachute for you. America's most intelligent President has taken my schoolbag..."
