  1. Stories - Pat and the Landlord

    Share Share Post
    Pat went to the landlord to pay his rent, and the landlord invited him into the dining room, and gave him a glass of whiskey.
    When Pat had finished the whiskey, he said to the landlord "Your honour, how are the glasses made"? The landlord at once replied, "they were blown." "Well", said Pat, as he looked at his glass, " the man that blew this one had not much wind" On hearing this the landlord offered him a second glass, laughing as he did so.
