Two Young Irish Lads on Holiday in London
Paddy turns to Murphy with a look of amazement on his face and says: "Murphy, will you look at that shop over there. I thought that London was supposed to be expensive!"
Murphy says: "Paddy you're right so you are. Suits £10, Shirts £4, Trousers £5, I think that we should buy the lot and take them back to Ireland. We would make a tidy profit selling them in Dublin, so we would."
Paddy says in agreement: "Murphy that is as good an idea as you'll ever have, but I'm pretty sure that you have to pay taxes and duty on things like that. The shopkeeper will never let us have them if he thinks we're going to export them and make our fortune, so he won't."
Murphy thinks and says: "Paddy, I've got an idea! You can do the best English accent out of the pair of us. You go in there and do the talking and I'll just stand behind you and say nothing. He'll never guess we're Irish. No he won't."
"OK", agrees Paddy, "I'll do the talking, you just stand there and look English."
So the two go into the shop, where Paddy is greeted politely by the owner. Paddy then proceeds to do his best English accent: "Alwight mate, I'll 'ave 20 of yer suits, 20 shirts and 20 pairs of trousers please."
Upon hearing this request, the owner stares at the pair for the longest time and finally says, "You boys are Irish aren't you?"
Surprised, Paddy replies, "Oh be Jesus. Mary mother of Christ, if that ain't me best English accent? How in God's name did you know that we were Irish?"
The owner replied, "Because this is a Dry Cleaners."
