a scene from a marriage …. sven & lena, part 12

Lena and Sven were having a dinner party for some important guests. Lena was very excited about this and wanted everything to be perfect. At the very last minute, she realized that she didn’t have any snails for the dinner party, so she asked Sven to run down to the beach with the bucket to gather some snails. Very grudgingly he agreed.

He took the bucket, walked out the door, down the steps, and out to the beach. As he was collecting the snails, he noticed a beautiful woman strolling alongside the water just a little further down the beach. He kept thinking to himself, “Wouldn’t it be great if she would even just come down and talk to me?”

Sven went back to gathering the snails. All of a sudden he looked up, and the beautiful woman was standing right over him. They started talking and she invited him back to her place. They ended up spending the night together. At seven o’clock the next morning Sven woke up and exclaimed, “Oh no!!! My wife’s dinner party!!!”

Sven gathered all his clothes, put them on real fast, grabbed his bucket, and ran out the door. He ran down the beach all the way to their apartment. He ran up the stairs of his apartment. He was in such a hurry that when he got to the top of the stairs, he dropped the bucket of snails. There were snails all down the stairs. The door opened just then, with a very angry Lena standing in the door way wondering where he’s been all this time. He looked at the snails all down the steps, then he looked at Lena, then back at the snails and said, “Come on guys, we’re almost there!!”

  1. Hahahaha:) I thought that this is a Bulgarian joke because we have it here and it’s quite popular. Only Sven i called Pesho and he spent the night drinking with his friends not with a beautiful woman. But hey, Scandinavians have always been more romantic than people on the Balkans, so it’s in the jokes as well:) I like it.

    • Yes, one of my favorite …. it’s American … I just changed the names into Swedish. If there is one thing we are not … is’t romantic. *laughing

      • Haha:) Oh, okay but that’s what the common idea is here in the South – Scandinavian people are much more caring and loving, because it’s cold up there and they need to keep warm with someone:) sth like that:)

      • Yes, we are loving and caring – but only if we know you! We are very reserved. Have a look at my post about Sweden – then you .. will understand a bit more about us up here in the sunshine. At least today. http://wp.me/p293Pw-1DM

  2. This was hilarious. It was so funny to me. For one.. snails for a dinner party?!
    But secondly, I love it when within a split second someone comes up with a ‘reasonable reason’ for things. You totally had me smile today, thank you …

    • Snails, very french starter – but I don’t think it’s the snails we pick on the beach *smile – I love this too … when I founded I laughed the whole evening. Think is’t brilliant.
