FAIR DIKUM

The dear old 'ladies, visiting the hospital, liked to talk to the Aussies. They liked to hear the Aussies talk. So one morning one asked the usual question: “Any Australians in, nurse?” “Yes, one in the end bed,” said nurse. The old lady was soon back. “I think you are mistaken, nurse. He is a Russian.” - Nurse was surprised, so the dear old lady explained that her “Goodmorning” had been answered with “Opityerbitch.”
