  • A Pub in Glasgow

    "As good as this is," said the Scotsman, "I still prefer the pubs back home. In Glasgow , there’s a wee place called McTavish’s. The landlord goes out of his way for the locals. When you buy four drinks, he’ll buy the fifth drink."

    "Well, Angus," said the Englishman, “at my local in London, the Red Lion, the barman will buy you your third drink after you buy the first two."

    "Ahhh, dat’s nothin’," said the Irishman, "back home in my favourite pub, the moment you set foot in the place, they’ll buy you a drink, then another, all the drinks you like, actually. Then, when you’ve had enough drinks, they’ll take you upstairs and see dat you get laid, all on the house!"

    The Englishman and Scotsman were suspicious of the claims. The Irishman swore every word was true.

    “Did this actually happen to you?"

    "Not meself, personally, no," admitted the Irishman, “but it did happen to me sister quite a few times.”

  • An Irishman, an Englishman and a Scotsman on Pubs

    An Irishman, an Englishman and a Scotsman were sitting in a bar in Sydney, Australia. The view was fantastic, the beer excellent, and the food exceptional.
    "But" said the Scotsman, "I still prefer the pubs back home. Why in Glasgow there’s a little bar called McTavish’s. Now the landlord there goes out of his way for the locals so much that when you buy 4 drinks he will buy the 5th drink for you."
    "Well" said the Englishman, "At my local, the Red Lion, the barman there will buy you your 3rd drink after you buy the first two."
    "Ahhh, that’s nothin’" said the Irishman. "Back home in Dublin there’s Ryan’s Bar. Now the moment you set foot in the place they’ll buy you a drink, then another, all the drinks you like. Then when you’ve had enough drinks they’ll take you upstairs and see that you get laid – all on the house!"
    The Englishman and Scotsman immediately pour scorn on the Irishman’s claims. He swears every word is true.
    "Well" asked the Englishman, "Did this actually happen to you?"
    "Not myself, personally, no…" said the Irishman. "But it did happen to my sister."
