The British Way......
ATaliban, desperate for water, was plodding through the Afghan desert when he saw something far off in the distance.
Hoping to find water, he hurried toward the oasis only to find a British soldier selling regimental ties.
The Taliban asked, "Do you have water?" The soldier replied, "There is no water here, the well is dry. Would you like to buy a tie instead? They are only £5." The Taliban shouted, " I do not need an over-priced tie. I need water! " "OK," said the soldier,
If you continue over that hill to the east for about two miles, you will find our Sergeant's Mess.
It has lots of nice ice cold water, all you need."
Cursing him, the Taliban staggered away over the hill. Several hours later he comes staggering and crawling back, collapsing with dehydration & and he rasped: "They won't let me in without a f***ing tie!" | ||
