  1. Two Irishmen and two Englismen were playing cards.
    The two Irishmen were partners and one used to say to the other "An bhfuil agat?" and the other Irishman used to say "Tá" when he had good cards.
    The two Englishmen who were losing stood up from the table and said they would never again play the game of "An bhuil agat tá."
