The Business Venture


Paddy and Mick walking down a street in London. Paddy happens to look in one of the shop windows and sees a sign that catches his eye. The sign said: "Suits £5.00 each, shirts £2.00 each, trousers £2.50 per pair."

Paddy says to his pal, "Mick, Look! We could buy a whole lot of load, and when we get back to Ireland, we could make a fortune. Now when we go into the shop, you be quiet, okay? Just let me do all the talking cause if they hear our accent, they might not be nice to us. I'll speak in my best English accent."

"Roight y'are, Paddy, I'll keep me mouth shut, so I will." says Mick.

They go in and Paddy says, "I'll take 50 suits at £5.00 each, 100 shirts at £2.00 each, and 50 pairs of trousers at £2.50 each. I'll back up my truck and ......"

The owner of the shop interrupts, "You're from Ireland, aren't you?"

"Well...yes," says a surprised Paddy. "How de hell d' y' know dat?"

The owner says, "This is a dry cleaners."
