A middle-aged woman seemed sheepish as she visited her
gynaecologist.
“Come now,” coaxed the doctor, “you've been
seeing me for years.
There's nothing you can't tell me.”
“This one's kind of strange...”
“Let me be the judge of that,” the doctor
replied.
“Well,” she said, “yesterday I went to the
bathroom in the morning and heard a plink-plink-plink in
the toilet and when I looked down, the water was full of
pennies.”
“I see.”
“That afternoon I went to the bathroom again and,
plink-plink-plink, there were some 2p's in the bowl.”
“That night,” she went on, “I went again,
plink-plink-plink, and there were 5p's and this morning
there were 10p's. You've got to tell me what's wrong
with me!” she implored. “I'm scared out of my
wits!”
The gynaecologist put a comforting hand on her shoulder.
“There, there, it's nothing to be scared about.”
