A Pint, the Pub, and a Penny saved
03/06/2009
‘What do the English do after a long day at work?’, you ask
‘They go to the pub’, I reply.
‘What do they do after a long day of not-working?’
‘They go to the pub’. (this time with a shrug)
Do we see a pattern developing?
This was me yesterday. Long day. No work. Need to get out. Pub? Pub. Problem. If we haven’t worked that means we haven’t any money. Fortunately for me I have long been in the habit of taking my favourite pint glasses home from the pub. By now I have emassed such a collection I could probably open my own pub right in my livingroom. I also happen to have some good ol Badger ale already in the house. A and I decide we should pour our own pints and then walk to the pub (let’s not forget, drinking outside is legal in England). Nobody will notice once we’re there. It’s a nice day. The pub will be packed.
Success!! We arrive at the pub, pint in hand. Not a penny spent. One more outing for the unemployed.
Lol! What a great idea! Nicely done
