How to stay married

Ett gift par firade sin sextionde bröllopsdag.

A married couple was celebrating their 60th wedding anniversary.

På festen ville alla veta hur de hade lyckats få äktenskapet att hålla så länge.

At the party everybody wanted to know how they managed to stay married so long.

Maken svarade: "När vi gifte oss gjorde vi en överenskommelse."

The husband responded: "When we were married we came to an agreement."

"Jag skulle fatta alla större beslut, och min fru skulle fatta alla de mindre."

"I would make all the major decisions and my wife would make all the minor decisions."

"Och under sextio års äktenskap har vi aldrig behövt fatta ett större beslut."

"And in 60 years of marriage we have never needed to make a major decision."
