Sharon runs a local bridge club which is renowned for the quality of its players. One evening, just before the players are due to arrive, she gets a last minute call from one of them saying that she is sick and won’t be coming in. Unable to get a replacement at such short notice, Sharon persuades her husband Brian, a mediocre player with a bad attitude, to make up the foursome.
During the evening’s play, Brian gets up and goes to the toilet, leaving the door ajar. Soon, everyone can hear him peeing. Embarrassed, Sharon calls out, “Brian, would you please close the toilet door.”
But Brian’s partner says, “Never mind, Sharon, it’s the first time since we started playing that I’ve known what the man has in his hand.”
