Blair and Brown

Tony Blair called Gordon Brown into his office one day and said,

"Gordon, I have a great idea! We are going to go all out to win back
Middle England".

"Good idea PM, how will we go about it?" said Brown.

"Well' said Blair "we'll get ourselves two of those long Barbour coats,
some proper wellies ' a stick and a flat cap, oh and a Labrador.
Then we'll really look the part. We'll go to a nice old country pub, in
Much Something or other or one of those villages and we'll show we
really enjoy the Countryside"

"Right PM" said Brown.

So a few days later, all kitted out and with the requisite Labrador at
heel, they set off from London in a westerly direction. Eventually they
arrived at just the place they were looking for and found a lovely
country pub and, with the dog, went in and up to the bar.

"Good evening Landlord, may we have two pints of your best ale, from the
wood" said Blair.

"Good evening Prime Minister" said the landlord, "two pints of best it
is,coming up"

Blair and Brown stood leaning on the bar drinking their beer and
chatting, nodding now and again to those who came into the bar for a
drink.

The dog lay quietly at their feet. All of a sudden, the door from the
adjacent bar opened and in came a grizzled old shepherd, complete with
crook.

He walked up to the Labrador, lifted its tail and looked underneath,
Shrugged his shoulders and walked back to the other bar.
A few moments later, in came another old shepherd with his crook. He
walked up to the dog, lifted its tail, looked underneath, scratched his
head and went back to the other bar.

Over the course of the next hour or so another four or five shepherds
came in, lifted the dog's tail and went away looking puzzled.

Eventually Blair and Brown could stand it no longer and called the
barman over.

"Tell me" said Blair, "why did all those old shepherds come in and
look under the dog's tail like that? Is it an old custom?"





"Good Lord no," said the barman. "Its just that someone has told
them that there was a Labrador in this bar with two ars*holes".
