Hi Lady. Here's a little something to bring a smile to your face:
An American tourist in London decides to skip his tour group and explore
the city on his own. He wanders around, seeing the sights, and occasionally
stopping at a quaint pub to soak up the local culture, chat with the
lads,and have a pint of Guinness. After awhile, he finds himself in a
very high class neighborhood.....big, stately residences.. no pubs, no
stores, no restaurants, and worst of all.........NO PUBLIC RESTROOMS.
He really, really has to go, after all those Guinness's. He finds a narrow
side street, with high walls surrounding the adjacent buildings and decides
to use the wall to solve his problem.
As he is unzipping, he is tapped on the shoulder by a London Bobbie,
who says, "I say, sir, you simply cannot do that here, you know."
"I'm very sorry, officer," replies the American, "but I really, really HAVE
TO GO, and I just can't find a public restroom."
"Ah, yes," said the Bobbie..."Just follow me". He leads him to a back
"delivery alley", then along a wall to a gate, which he opens.
"In there," points the Bobbie. "Whiz away SIR, anywhere you want."
The fellow enters and finds himself in the most beautiful garden he
has ever seen... manicured grass lawns, statuary, fountains, sculptured
hedges, and huge beds of gorgeous flowers, all in perfect bloom.
Since he has the cop's blessing, he unburdens himself and is greatly
relieved.
As he goes back through the gate, he says to the Bobbie,
"That was really decent of you... is that what you call "British Hospitality?"
"No sir," replied the Bobbie.. "that is what we call the French Embassy."
Those beautiful faces! God bless them!
Thanks for the very hearty laugh, TO!!
Beautiful!
incoming!!
I love google.!
Good pictures. Thanks for sharing them.
I bought myself 300 Marine stamps on the day they came out.
The people at the post office could not believe it.
I do believe we need a poem or song along the lines of:
"I'd be lost without you, lost without you, Google..." or
"Google, google, how I love ya...
how I love ya,
Too bad everyone does not have true Esprit de Corps..:))
You and I
{{{ Hugs }}}
Then really look closely at these folks,
there to allow you you to toss and turn in comfort and peace.....
Prayers and gratitude for all who serve our country.
You get an award for deeply felt poetry.
Thanks!
