Who says men dont remember!
A couple went Christmas shopping. The husband saw a horse carriage and wanted to

take his wife on their way to the mall. The wife became desperate hearing how the man
flogged the horses desperately towards the shopping center. As they arrived, the shopping
center was packed and as the wife, a cultured lady, walked around, she was surprised to
discover that her husband was nowhere to be seen. She was quite upset because they had a
lot to do and for this reason, she became so worried that she called him on her mobile
phone to ask him where he was. In a quiet voice he said: Do you remember the local next
to the lashes store, we went into about five years ago, where you fell in love with that
crystal vase that we couldnt afford, and I told you that I would get it for you one day?.
The wife started to sob and said: Yes I do remember that expensive shop and the crystal
vase. He replied: Well, Im in the pub next door!. She was so upset and heartbroken that
she screamed: You oughtnt make that careless joke!.
