australia to the rescue

Helen Clarke, Prime Minister of New Zulland, is rudely awoken at 4am by the

telephone.

"Hillen, its the hilth munister here. Sorry to bother you at this hour but
there is an emergency! I've just received word thet the Durex fectory en
Auckland has burned to the ground. It is istimated thet the entire New
Zulland supply of condoms will be gone by the ind of the week."

"Shuuuuuut - the economy wull niver be able to cope with all those unwanted

babies - we'll be ruined!"

"We're going to hef to shup some in from abroad... Britain?..."

"No chence!! The Poms will have a field day on thus one!"

"What about Australia?"

"Maybe - but we don't want them to know thet we are stuck. You call John
Howard - tell hum we need one moollion condoms; ten enches long and eight
enches thuck! That way they'll know how bug the Kiwis really are!!"

Helen calls John, who agrees to help the Kiwis out in their hour of need.

Three days later a van arrives in Auckland - full of boxes. A delighted
Helen rushes out to open the boxes. She finds condoms; 10 inches long; 8
inches thick, all coloured green and gold. She then notices in small writing

on each and every one.........
