Poor old amos

[Corvus]

Young couple stop for a drink in a dales pub.

Spot an old bloke sobbing into his beer. They ask him what's wrong.

He says..

"See that church roof? I built that wi me bare 'ands.

Do they call me "Amos the roof builder"?"

"See that dry stone wall? I built that wi me bare 'ands.

Do they call me "Amos the wall builder"?"

"See that barn? I built that wi me bare 'ands.

Do they call me "Amos the barn builder"?"

Sobs again...

"Then one lousy sheep".....[/quote]

Small chuckle was had

I saw Amos struggling to hold a particularly boisterous sheep.

I said "are you shearing that sheep?"

He said "bugger off. Get yer own"

It was Giuseppe the boat builder/ice cream maker/ sculpture/ artist when I heard it. And you could really lay it on with the Italian accent when telling it " do they calla me Giuseppe da boat-a-builder? No!! I tell you, I f#ck one-na sheep, one-na sheep!!

Yeah, I'm gettin it. The eye tie accysent.

Bumped into Amos again. Leaning on a gate looking at a field full o sheep.

I asked what he was doing.

He said "I've got 69 sheep. Can you help me round em up?"

I said "sure, that'll be 70 sheep then"

Simples.
