A Little Joke: Just To Make Your Day
“Do not take life too seriously. You will never get out of it alive.”
Bill had ducked into the pub for a pint. He was alone, so very much listening to the endless chit-chat around him.
One big, burley chap kept calling out to the waiter, “Another couple of pints, Donkey.”
The waiter obediently brought the two pints and carefully added them to the man’s tab, smiling all the while.
And so it went on…
“Two more pints Donkey. Thanks Donkey.”
The onlooker’s ire was rising by the minute. This was absolutely not fair. So when the hapless waiter was passing by he whispered, “Why do you let him belittle you like that? You’re a fine waiter. Just tell him to stop.”
The waiter raised his hands, as if to say…What can a boy do?
At this point, the man got out of his seat, to head over to dress the other man down.
“No, no no!” the waiter cried. “Ee aw, ee aw, ee always calls me Donkey.”
Though I can’t actually locate this Billy Connelly joke, it is his. We were at his concert when he relayed it. Instead I offer up this selection.
