A drink for the Bishop

After the baptismal service ended, the Bishop, Vicar, and Curate walked to the Vicarage for lunch. Being of amiable disposition, the Vicar offered his companions a drink.

"Whisky for me, please," said the bishop. "Make it a double, if you would!"

The Vicar complied, then turned to the Curate "What will you have?"

"I?" glowered the Curate in righteous indignation "I will not drink alcohol! I would rather commit adultery than touch alcohol!"

The bishop looked sadly at his own, now almost empty, glass. "Pity" he said "I hadn't realised we had the choice!"
