A couple decide to go for a meal on their anniversary and after some deliberation decide on their local Chinese restaurant.\n

They peruse the menu and finally agree to share the chef\u2019s special \u2018Chicken Surprise\u2019.\n

The waiter brings over the meal, served in a lidded cast iron pot.\n

Just as the wife is about to start in on the meal, the lid of the pot rises a tiny amount and she briefly sees two beady little eyes looking around before the lid slams back down.\n

\u2018Good grief, did you see that?\u2019 she asks her husband.\n

He hasn\u2019t so she asks him to look in the pot.\n

He reaches for it and again the lid rises, and again he! sees two beady little eyes looking around before it firmly slams back down.\n

Rather perturbed he calls the waiter over, explains what is happening and demands an explanation.\n

\u2018Well sir\u2019, says the waiter, \u2018What did you order?\u2019\n

\u2018We both chose the same\u2019, he replies, \u2018the Chicken Surprise\u2019\n

\u2018Oh I do apologise, this is my fault\u2019 says the waiter\u2026..\n
