More Yorkshire ramblings

 

Two London businessmen 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 Yorkshireman walked to the window, had a peek, and in a broad

Yorkshire accent asked "What's tha sellin' ere?"

 

One of the men replied sarcastically, "We're selling arse-holes."

 

Without skipping a beat, the Yorkshireman said, "Tha's doing well

...

Only two left!"

 

 

The moral for Southerners - Don't mess with Yorkshiremen!

Yorkshire girls are best?

 

 

Three men were sitting together bragging about how they had given their new wives duties to perform.

 

Terry had married a woman from America and bragged that he had told his new wife to do the dishes and all the cleaning in the house. He said it took a couple of days, but on the third day he came home to a clean house and all the dishes were washed and put away.

 

Eddie had married a woman from Australia and bragged that he had given his new wife orders to do all the cleaning, the dishes and the cooking. He told them the first day he didn’t see any results, but the next day was better, and by the third day his house was clean, the dishes done and there was a huge meal on the table.

 

The third man said that he had married a Yorkshire girl… He boasted that the duties he had ordered her to do were to keep the house clean, the dishes washed, lawn mowed, laundry washed and hot meals on the table every day. He said the first day he didn’t see anything, the second day he didn’t see anything, but by the third day most of the swelling had gone down and he could see a little bit out of his left eye. Enough to make himself a bite to eat, load the dishwasher and call a gardener!
