There was a NewZealander, an Australian and a West Indian in the waiting room of a maternity ward.
Each mans wife was giving birth.
Eventually a nurse entered the waiting room and said to all three men. "Congratulations you all have healthy baby boys, both mother and child are O.K . However I'm afraid we've had a bit of a mix up and we're not sure which baby is which. If you could follow me to where the babies are being incubated, you can please identify your own babies."
So the three men followed the nurse and entered the ward. After a couple of seconds the Kiwi came to the nurse carrying a baby.
This is definitely my baby" he said
The nurse looked at the baby, then up at the Kiwi with a puzzled look.
But surely this baby is West Indian" said the nurse.
"Yes" agreed the Kiwi "But one of those other two babies in there is an Australian and I just can't take that risk!"
