Twenty Quid

MonkieSocks

Bill and his wife Blanche go to the Yorkshire fair show every year,

And every year Bill would say,

" Blanche, I'd like to ride in that there 'elicopter "

Blanche always replied,

" I know Bill, but that 'elicopter ride is twenty quid,

And twenty quid is twenty quid ! "



One year Bill and Blanche went to the fair, and Bill said," Blanche, I'm 75 years old.

If I don't ride that there 'elicopter, I might never get another chance "

To this, Blanche replied,
" Bill that 'elicopter ride is twenty quid, and twenty quid is twenty quid "


The pilot overheard the couple and said,

" I'll make you a deal. I'll take the both of you for a ride.

If you can stay quiet for the entire ride and don't say a word I won't charge you a penny !

But if you say one word it's twenty quid. "

Bill and Blanche agreed and up they went.

The pilot did all kinds of fancy maneuvers, but not a word was heard.

He did his daredevil tricks over and over again,But still not a word...

When they landed, the pilot turned to Bill and said,

" By golly, I did everything I could to get you to yell out, but you didn't..I'm impressed ! "

Bill replied,
" Well, to tell you t'truth,I almost said summat when Blanche fell out.


"But Twenty Quid is Twenty Quid"
