An African tale

An Afrikaner maiden was walking through the felt one day she happened to see a man drinking from a pool said she in Afrikaans “Hey my good man don’t drink from that pool there is sheep shit in the water”

Replied the man Sorry I am from England can you speak English?

“Sorry” said she in English “I was just saying use both hands you will get so much more water like that”

Moral of the story: Make sure the brown in the bottom of your cup is not shit before drinking.

As Basil Fawlty might say to the Afrikaner maiden (though this time referring to the Boer War and not World War II), "Who won the bloody war anyhow?".

Racial dislike among the English and Afrikaners is relative to how well there blood lines are mixed. Have to agree with JDoc
