Anither wan aboout the Auld Toony Fisherman

Postby Bitter End » Sat Jan 29, 2011 4:26 pm

A London lawyer and an Auld Toony are sitting next to each other on a trans Atlantic flight.
The lawyer is bored and thinks that he will be takin the Piss oot o the Auld Yin and haein a guid laugh at his expense.

So the lawyer asks if the Auld Yin would like to play a fun game. The Auld Yin is tired and just wants to take a nap an
dream aboot his deys at the ring net ,so he politely declines and tries to catch a few winks.

The lawyer persists saying that the game is a lot of fun. I ask you a question, and if you don't know the answer, you pay
me £5. Then you ask me one, and if I don't know the answer, I will pay you £500.
This catches the Auld Yin's attention and to keep the lawyer quiet, he agrees to play the game.

The lawyer asks the first question. 'What's the distance from the Earth to the Moon?'

The Auld Yin doesn't say a word, but reaches into his pocket, pulls out a five pound note, and hands it to the lawyer.

Now it's the Auld Yin's turn. He asks the lawyer, 'What goes up a hill with three legs, and comes down with four?'

The lawyer uses his laptop and searches all references he could find on the Net.

He sends e-mails to all the smart friends he knows; all to no avail. After an hour of searching, he finally gives up.

He wakes the Auld Yin and hands him £500. The Auld Yin pockets the £500 and goes right back to sleep.
The lawyer is going nuts not knowing the answer. He wakes the Auld Yin up and asks, 'Well, so what goes up a hill with
three legs and comes down with four?'

The Auld Yin reaches into his pocket, hands the lawyer £5 and goes back to sleep.
Twice through the eye o' the sun to lift it.
