Two Irishmen were visiting London for the first time. While strolling in a shopping district, they happened upon a shop with a sign in the window reading, "jackets £4.00, trousers £2.00, shirts £1.00."
The two men stopped and Paddy said to Murphy, "We should buy a heap of these to take back and sell in Ireland. We'll pay for our holiday and then some."
Murphy replied, "Good idea! But, if they think we're foreigners, they might not sell them to us. I can do a good British accent so let me do all of the talking."
Paddy and Murphy went inside the shop and in his best British accent, Murphy said "We'll have 100 jackets, 100 pairs of trousers and 100 shirts please."
The shop employee stared at them for a few seconds and then said, "You two fellows are from Ireland, aren't you?"
Murphy immediately went on the offensive and said, "So what if we are? Are you saying you won't sell clothes to Irish people? That's rascism! That's illegal!"
And the shop employee responded, "No! Not at all! It's just that this is a drycleaners."
Do you think it is possible that some members may not have already heard any particular joke, and will find it amusing? And there is no harm done to those who already may have heard it. Big deal. Cheers
