eddmac Posted January 17, 2006 Share Posted January 17, 2006 two englishmen were walking down the street in Dublin, "Look" said steve "See those prices" in the shop window was a sign "shirts €1.50, trousers €2.50, jackets €5.00" Steve says to Bob, "we should buy as many as we can and sell them back home - we'll make a killing" Bob says "yeah, but put on an Irish accent or they will try to rip us off" Steve agrees "to be sure I'll do the talking" They go into the shop with their cunning plan. Steve goes up to the man in the shop "well now, we'll have 20 jackets, 40 pairs of trousers and 60 shirts, to be sure to be sure" he turns and winks at Bob. The shop keeper says to him "no you cant" Steve gets annoyed "to be sure now, well, dat's not fair, I demand that you give them to us" The shopkeeper sighs and says "you're english, aren't you" Steve is shocked "how could you tell, was my accent not good?" The shopkeeper laughs and says "your accent was good, but this is a laundrette" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
