AN OLD ONE.
A Scotchman once neatly turned the tables on an Englishman who had been alluding to the number of Scots in London.
• Well,’ replied the Scot, ‘ 1 know a place in Scotland where there are 30,000 Englishmen who never go back to their own country.’ • Why, wherever can such a crowd be ?’ said the Englishman, to whom the Scot dryly remarked, ‘ At Bannockburn.’
