Subject: HUMOR: TWO BRITISH SAILORS
>Two British sailors attended a church service in Stockholm. Not
>speaking a word of Swedish and not wishing to appear out of place
>they sat behind an important looking man and when he stood up or
>knelt down, they did the same.
>
>At the end of the service, the pastor made what was evidently an
>announcement, whereupon the man in front of the sailors rose to his
>feet, and they did likewise - to a roar of laughter from the congregation.
>
>As the sailors left the church, the pastor spoke to them in English,
>so they asked him the reason for the laughter.
>
>"Oh!" he said, "I mentioned that next Sunday morning there was to be
>a baptism and would the father of the child please stand up."
