The Geordie Joke...I will interpret if need be :-)
A woman walks into the Newcastle benefits office, trailed by 15 kids...
'OH WOW,' the social worker exclaims, 'Are they ALL yours?
'Aye they're alll mine,' the flustered mother sighs, having heard that question a thousand times before. She says, 'Sit doon Geordie.' All the children rush to find seats.
'Well,' says the social worker, 'then you must be here to sign up. I'll need all your children's names.'
'This one's me eldest - he's Geordie.'
'OK, and who's next?'
'Well, this one, he's Geordie anall.'
The social worker raises an eyebrow but continues. One by one, through the oldest four, all boys, all named Geordie.. 'All right,' says the caseworker. 'I'm seeing a pattern here. Are they ALL named Geordie?'
Their Mother replied, 'Wey aye - it meks it easior. When it's time to get them oot of bed and ready for scheul, A yell, 'Geordie!' An' when it's time for dinner, A just yell 'Geordie!' an' they aall come runnin'. An' if A need to stop the kid who's runnin oot into the street, I just yell 'Geordie' and all of them stop. It's the smartest idea Av ivvor had, namin' them all Geordie.'
The social worker thinks this over for a bit, then wrinkles her forehead and says tentatively, 'But what if you just want ONE kid to come, and not the whole bunch?'
'Whey that's easy pet....... A call them by their sornames!'
