An Irishman, an Englishman and a German are caught in Saudi Arabia,
drinking
liquour.
"Under Saudi law you are sentenced to 30 lashes then deported.
Before we begin you
are entitled to something
on your back. What would you like?" said the prison guard to the
Englishman just
before flogging him.
The English man, being a bit of a cricket fan, asked for linseed
oil.
So they lashed him on a post and let him go to catch his flight back
to London. He
groaned and crawled to the
airport.
Next came the German.
"Under Saudi law you are sentenced to 30 lashes then deported.
Before we begin you
are entitled to something
on your back. What would you like?" asked the prison guard.
"Nothing" said the German and, after receiving his lashes, he spat
on the ground,
called the prison guards
Schisers and started off towards the airport.
The guards then came to the Irishman. "Under Saudi law you are
sentenced to 30
lashes then deported. Before
we begin you are entitled to something on your back. What would you
like?"
"Oh", replied the Irishman, "I'll have the German".
