Murphy went to a pet shop and asked how many budgies were in stock.
"We have 99" replied the shop owner
"Give us the lot" said Murphy, paid for them and left.
He went to a tailors shop and had 99 pockets sewn into a jacket, put a budgie in each pocket, went up to the Sydney Harbor Bridge and jumped off.
He hit the water with an almighty smack and lay there groaning until a boat came and he was dragged on board.
" What happened? " asked the skipper.
"I don't know sur" Murphy replied "but that's the last time I try that budgie jumping"
