Sir Digby Chicken Caesar – The Complete Adventures
From Liz! From "That Mitchell and Webb Look" and comedy show on British TV:
Two English businessmen in London
From Gina:
Two English businessmen in London - were sitting down for a break in their soon to be new store. As yet, the store wasn't ready, with only a few shelves set up.
One said to the other,
'I bet any minute now some thick tourist is going to walk by, put his face to the window and ask what we're selling.'
No sooner were the words out of his mouth when, sure enough, a curious Irishman walked to the window, had a peek, and in a broad Irish accent asked
'What are you selling' here
One of the men replied sarcastically,
'We're selling arse-holes.'
Without skipping a beat, the Irishman said,
'You are doing well ... Only two left!'
Englishmen - God bless them - should not mess with Irishmen
