The only cow in a small town in Ireland stopped giving milk.

The town folk found they could buy a cow in Scotland quite cheaply. They brought the cow from Scotland.

It was wonderful, produced lots of milk every day and everyone was happy.

They bought a bull to mate with the cow to get more cows, so they'd never have to worry about their milk supply again. They put the bull in the pasture with the cow but whenever the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull and he was never able to do the deed. The people were very upset and decided to go to the Vet, who was very wise, tell him what was happening and ask his advice.

"Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away.
When he approaches her from the front, she backs off.
If he approaches from the back, she moves forward.
If he attempts from the one side, she walks away to the other side.
She just never seems to be in the mood to cooperate."

The Vet rubbed his chin thoughtfully and pondered this before asking,
"Did you by chance get this cow in Scotland?"

The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned that they had brought the cow over from Scotland.
"You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow from Scotland?"

The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye:
"My wife is from Scotland..."

Aaah...Now that wasn't nice...

Eh, I figure I have enough Scottish blood running through my veins that it's not prejudicial.

I wonder where my ex is from ????

Don't know 'bout your ex, but my ex was of French heritage and she was a cold fish.

Me? Strong Scotch heritage...

SCOTTISH Bushy, Scottish mate. Scotch is that nectar of the Gods that we like to sip on a cool night.

Yes sir Vince, scoch, water no ice.

Perhaps he had a wee tipple before he answered.....

looks like dhc has too as he is hiccuping already

Bushy, and you prefer your scotch with ice? So as long as you don't go to the cold Northren countries, in my opinion you made a good choise...

I prefer my Scotch neat. I've had too many bad ice cubes over the years.

I understand. When I drink water it will also keep me awake all night... besides it's demineralising you!
Even my dog prefers beer instead of water. So water cannot be good, look what fish do in that stuff... not to mention the Ganges in India...
