A man was walking along a country lane in Ireland when he spotted a four-leaved clover. Thinking it might bring him luck, he bent down and picked the leaf. Suddenly there was a puff of smoke and a leprechaun appeared.
'Congratulations!' said the leprechaun. 'You've picked the four-leaved clover, and I will now grant you any wish.'
The man thought for a moment and said, 'I'd like to live forever'.
'Ah, I'm sorry,' replied the leprechaun. 'That's the one thing that's not within my power to make happen. But you may have another wish.'
The man thought for a while before saying, 'I'd like to live until England next win the World Cup.'
The leprechaun looked at him and said, 'You clever b*stard!'
