All "Tykes": will understand, everyone else will have a good chuckle!!
Up in Yorkshire
A rugby league fan is drinking in a Yorkshire bar, when he gets a call
on his mobile phone.
He hangs up, grinning from ear to ear, and orders a round of drinks
for everybody in the bar,
announcing his wife has just given birth to a typical Yorkshire baby
boy weighing 25 pounds.
Nobody can believe that any new baby can weigh in at 25 pounds, but
the rugby fan just shrugs
and replies, "That's about average in Yorkshire ... like I said, my
boy's a typical Yorkshire baby boy.
Gonna be a rugby league player." Congratulations showered him from all
around, amid
many exclamations of "WOW!" One woman actually fainted due to sympathy pains.
Two weeks later, he returns to the bar. The bartender says, "Say,
aren't you the father of that typical
Yorkshire baby that weighed 25 pounds at birth? Everybody's been
making bets about how big he'd be in
two weeks. So, how much does he weigh now?"
The proud father answers, "Twenty pounds." The bartender is puzzled,
concerned and a little
suspicious. "What happened? He already weighed 25 pounds the day he was born!"
TheYorkshireman takes a slow swig of his Samuel Smith's, wipes his
lips on his shirt sleeve,
leans into the bartender and proudly says,"Had him circumcised..."
