Bridge to England

Bridge to England

A man who goes around a harbor in Denmark, looking longingly towards England, as he has always dreamed of visiting. The problem is that he suffers from a severe fear of flying and being utterly seasick just at the sight of a ferry. So it is a little difficult to get he dream of England fulfilled.
Suddenly he notices an antique-looking bottle in the water. He fishes it out and pulls the plug out of it. To his great surprise a spirit comes out of the bottle .
"Thank you," says the spirit. "As a thank you for releasing me, I can fulfill your deepest and most fervent wish. I can currently only fulfill one, so think carefully." "Well," says the man," that is great. So I would like to have a direct bridge going from Denmark to England " .
" Hmm ," says the spirit pretty worried, " It is a very big wish ! - Don't you have anything else you really want"?
"Yes ," the man says , " I've also always wanted to be able to understand women."
" Ok , ok ," replied the spirit quickly, "how many lanes should the bridge have"?
