>>An elderly man lay dying in his bed. While suffering the agonies of

>>impending death, he suddenly smelt the aroma of his favourite Anzac

>>bikkies wafting up the stairs.

>> He gathered his remaining strength , and lifted himself from the

>>bed. Leaning on the wall, he slowly made his way out of the bedroom

>>and , with even greater effort . gripping the railing with both hands

>>, he crawled downstairs. With laboured breath , he leaned against the

>>door frame , gazing into the kitchen.

>> Were it not for death"s agony ; he would have felt himself

>>already in heaven, for there spread out on waxed paper on the kitchen

>>table were literally hundreds of his favourite Anzac bikkies.

>> Was it heaven ?. or was it one final act of love from his

>>devoted Aussie wife of sixty years, seeing to it that he left this

>>world a happy man??

>> Mustering one great final effort , he threw himself towards the

>>table ,landing on his knees in rumpled posture. His aged and withered

>>hand trembled towards a biscuit at the edge of the table, when he was

>>suddenly smacked by his wife with a spatula...................

>>

>>

>> " Piss off" she said ,"They are for the funeral".
