Glasgow joke
John WOOD
The butcher says "a pound ye can't".

Or..the weegie said, "a pound of pork chops" the butcher says
"Gigot?" the weegie starts dancing and says, "a pound of pork chops"
Then he requested a pound of bacon, "lean back" says the butcher?
You know the rest.. :-))

He didn't get the joke quite right. My mum told me this version:
It was during the war apparently and a young lady went into a
fishmongers carrying a "gazunder" (a potty) and said to the Fishmonger
"Pounda fillet". The Fishmonger said "Pound you don't"...
I guess you had to be there.

Ah, I see it now

And the significance of it being during the war is that due to the paper
shortage the newly-bought potty wasn't wrapped up...

*******************************
My Granny says that during the 1st WW it happened like this ;
Weegie minces into the butchers and says "a pound ye fillet"
And the butcher says " are ye asking me to burger ye"
Gordon Davie
Weegie couple go into Jenner's men's department. The woman says to the
assistant: "We waant some hankies wi' initials on - the letter 'S'."
The assistant checks but says: "I'm sorry, madam, but we're sold out of that
letter."
The woman says: "Ach, never mind. C'moan, Shuggie - we'll try somewhere
else."

It's not all that funny is it? I suppose you think they should have
been looking for H hankies, but why? Looking somewhere else is the
sensible thing to do.
