Those Brits and their booze
NS March 17th, 2008
A conversation between two men, overheard at the glass recycling centre this morning
Man 1: I noticed you have quite a lot of bottles. I assume you run a bar?
Man 2 (looking down at the numerous boxes, bags and barrels full of glass bottles stacked by his feet): You’d think so, huh? *embarrassed laugh*
Man 1: Ah, I thought so. I’m an entertainer, you see. Here’s my card. If you ever need someone for a disco or quiz nights, things like that, just give me a bell.
Man 2: Uhhh…sure, thanks. We’ll be needing a dj for our wedding so I’ll keep that in mind.
Man 1: Your wedding?
Man 2: Yeah, I’m getting married later this year. These bottles were just from our engagement party this weekend.
Man 1: Oh, I see. Looks like it was a smashing success then! I like a couple who know how to have a good time, I do. Congratulations!
Man 2: Thanks! (carries on dumping dozens, maybe hundreds, of bottles into each bin)
