At the local bar Paddy was chatting to his buddy Mike and he said: "I've no idea what to get my wife for her birthday - she's got everything, and anyway, she can afford to buy anything she wants - I'm stumped."

Mike smiled, "Hey, I've an idea - why don't you make up a certificate saying she can have 1 hour of smashing $ex - she'll probably be thrilled."

So that's what Paddy did. The next day at the bar, Mike asked, "Well Paddy? Did you take my suggestion?"

"Yes, I did," said Paddy.

"Did she like it?" Mike asked.

"Oh yes! She jumped up, thanked me, kissed me on the forehead and ran out the door, yelling 'I'll be back in an hour!!'"
