Lovers Lane

Thanks to Bill in OZ for sending me this one.

A policeman was patrolling late at night in a well-known spot. He sees a couple in a car, with the interior light brightly glowing. He carefully approaches the car to get a closer look. He sees a young man behind the wheel, reading a computer magazine and a young woman in the rear seat, knitting.

Puzzled by this surprising situation, he walks to the car and gently raps on the driver's window. The young man lowers his window ."Uh, yes, officer?"
The policeman says: "What are you doing? "
The young man says,: "Well, Officer, I'm reading a magazine."

Pointing towards the young woman in the back seat the policeman says:,
"And what is she doing?"

"The young man shrugs: "Sir, I believe she's knitting a jumper."

Now, the policeman is totally confused. A young couple, in a car, at night in a Lover's lane.....and nothing obscene is happening!

The officer asks:, "How old are you, young man?"
The young man says, "I'm 22, sir."

"And her .... what's her age?"

The young man looks at his watch and replies: "She'll be 16 in 11 minutes."
