The drinks r on me! | Guy walks into a bar & stands waiting to be served. Barman approaches "Yes sir? Would u like a drink?" "Oh thankyou very much!" replies the guy. "I'll have a pint of Lager!" Which the barmen duly delivers. "Thankyou sir! That'll be #2.25 please." " Oh no!" replies the guy. "Oh yes!" assures the barman "it's up on the board there "#2.25" "No." says the guy "You asked me if I'd like a drink, that's an invitation to have one on you!" "That will be right! says the barmen copping the needle."I'm running a business here not a charity!" Just then, a lawyer, who had been observing from the other end of the bar, interupted "Actually barman, technically this man is correct. In pub parlance `Would you like a drink?' is an invitation to have a drink on you!" "Fair enough!" says the barman. "Have your pint on me! but when your finished it I want you out and don't come back your barred!" "The guy at the bar smiles, downs the pint and disappears out into the street. Later on the same night he walks back into the bar. The barman spots him immediately and shouts across the bar "Hey you! Out your barred!""Barred?" queries the guy shrugging. "I've never been in this pub in my life, in fact I've never been in this town in my life!" Puzzled the barmen replied "Well I never.....You must have a double then!" "Thankyou very much!" says the guy "Make it a whisky!" | |
