Little Vernon Koekemoer

Little Vernie was in his junior school class when the teacher asked the children what their fathers did for a living.

All the typical answers came up;-

Fireman, policeman, salesman, politician;

Vernie was being uncharacteristically quiet and so the teacher asked him about his father.

"My father's an exotic dancer in a gay club and takes off all his clothes in front of other men. Sometimes, if the offer's really good, he'll go out with a man, rent a cheap room and let them shag him."

The teacher hurriedly set the other children to work on some colouring and then took Little Vernie aside. She asked him, "Is that really true about your father?"

"No," said Vernie, "My father plays rugby for South Africa, but I was just too embarrassed to say".
