Something For The Weekend Sir?

[albaqwerty]

A young Glasgow lad moved to London and went to Harrods looking for a job.
"Do you have any sales experience?" asked the manager.
"The famous Barras mate?", nodded the young man.
The manager liked the lad, so he gave him the job.
The young Scot's first day was challenging and busy, but he got through it.
After the store was locked up, the manager came down to see how he was settling in.
"So... how many sales did you make today?", he smiled at the boy.
"just the wan"
The manager was immediately disappointed. "What? Just one? Harrods' sales people average 20 or 30 sales a day! Dear me! Oh well, how much was the sale for?
"£101,237.64" said the lad.
The Harrods manager choked. "Blimey... One hundred and one thousand, two hundred and thirty-seven pounds and sixty four pence! What in hell did you sell him?"
"Well, first ah selt him a wee fish hook, then a medium fish hook, and
then ah selt him a new fishing rod. Then ah asked him where he was gaun'
fishing, and he said doon the coast, so ah telt him he would need a boat.
We went doon tae the boat department and ah selt him that twin-engined power Cat... then he said he didn't think his wee Honda Civic could pull it, so ah took him down to car sales and ah selt him a 4x4 Suzuki......."
The manager was now incredulous. "Wait a minute. You mean to tell me a man came in here to buy a small fish hook but you sold him a boat AND a
four-by-four ... "
"Naw naw, big man... he came in tae buy a box of tampons fur 'is missus and ah said........."Well pal, seein' as how yer weekend's humped, ye might as well go fishing..."'

How do you catch so many fish from the canal?

Well if wife's leg hanging out of left side of bed,
I fish the left bank.
If hanging out of right side, I fish the right bank. Never fails.

What if leg hanging out of both sides of bed?

Who cares about fishing!
