Not a Prawn cocktail ... Just a light hearted joke.

[kiwitt]

Far away in the tropical waters of the Caribbean, two prawns were
swimming around in the sea - one called Justin and the other called
Christian.

The prawns were constantly being harassed and threatened by sharks
that inhabited the area. Finally one day Justin said to Christian,
"I'm fed up with being a prawn, I wish I was a shark, then I
wouldn't have any worries about being eaten."

A large mysterious cod appeared and said, "Your wish is granted"
and Lo and behold, Justin turned into a shark. Horrified, Christian
immediately swam away, afraid of being eaten by his old mate.

Time passed (as it invariably does) and Justin found life as a
shark boring and lonely. All his old mates simply swam away whenever he came close to them. Justin didn't realise that his new menacing appearance was the cause of his sad plight.

While swimming alone one day he saw the mysterious cod again and he
thought perhaps the mysterious fish could change him back into a
prawn. He approached the cod and begged to be changed back, and, lo
and behold, he found himself turned back into a prawn.

With tears of joy in his tiny little eyes Justin swam back to his
friends and bought them all a cocktail. (No -The punch line does not
involve a prawn cocktail).

Looking around the gathering at the reef he realised he couldn't
see his old friend.
"Where's Christian?" he asked.
"He's at home, still distraught that his best friend changed sides to
the enemy & became a shark", came the reply.

Eager to put things right again and end the mutual pain and torture, he set off to Christian's abode. As he opened the coral gate memories came flooding back. He banged on the door and shouted, "It's me, Justin, your old friend come out and see me again".
Christian replied, "No way man, you'll eat me. You're now a shark, the enemy, and I'll not be tricked into being your dinner." Justin cried back "No, I'm not. That was the old me. I've changed.".........



"I've found Cod. I'm a Prawn again Christian".
