Scottish character and humourScottish character and humour

The Scottish people have a reputation according to which they are very stingy. Thisisnot true, of course, as anyone who visited Scotland will tell you. The Scottish people are very clever and sim ple, and they also have a natural sense of humour.

One Friday a farmer's wife went to town as usual to sell her butter and eggs. "What are you giving for a dozen of eggs today?" she asked the grocer.

"Sixpence," was the short reply."Sixpence a dozen! That is a very small price, indeed!""Yes, but we grocers had a conference yesterday, and we decided that we could not give

more than sixpence for the eggs."The farmer's wife shook her head very sadly but took the money and went away. Next

Friday the farmer's wife came to town as usual. When the grocer looked at the eggs, he said: "Your eggs are very small this week."

"Well," she said, "our hens had a conference yesterday, and they decided that sixpence is such a small price that they must not try so hard to lay large eggs for it."

Scottish ['skDtifl - шотландский; 2 according [a'koidiq] to - в соответствии с (чем-либо); 3 stingy ['stiqd3i] - жадный; 4 grocer ['graosa] - бакалейщик; 5 to lay [lei] eggs - нести яйца.
