Farmer Jones got out of his car and while heading for his friend's door, noticed a pig with a wooden leg. His curiosity roused, he asked, "Fred, how'd that pig get him a wooden leg?"
"Well, Michael, that's a mighty special pig! A while back a wild boar attacked me while I was walking in the woods. That pig there came a runnin', went after that boar and chased him away. Saved my life!"
"And the boar tore up his leg?"
"No he was fine after that. But a bit later we had that fire. Started in the shed up against the barn. Well, that ole pig started squealin' like he was stuck, woke us up, and 'fore we got out here, the darn thing had herded the other animals out of the barn and saved 'em all!"
"So that's when he hurt his leg, huh, Fred?"
"No, Michael. He was a might winded, though. When my tractor hit a rock and rolled down the hill into the pond I was knocked clean out. When I came to, that pig had dove into the pond and dragged me out 'fore I drownded. Sure did save my life."
"And that was when he hurt his leg?"
"Oh no, he was fine. Cleaned him up, too."
"OK, Fred. So just tell me. How did he get the wooden leg?"
"Well", the farmer tells him, "A pig like that, you don't want to eat all at once!"

I just found it amusing because you "liked" it when I posted it previously.Oops sorry - well it was a good one!!
A Scottish man goes into a bar, and orders a pint of bitter.
He goes and sits down, and about halfway through his pint, he gets up and goes to the toilet.
Whiles he's away from the table, a muscular black woman walks over to his table, lifts up his pint, and breaks wind loudly into the glass.
The Scotsman returns, and when he picks up his drink to take a sip, he notices the vile odour.
He looks around the pub, and sees the only other occupant is a black woman sat in the corner.
"See you!" he says. " you fart in ma Whitbread?"
The black lady replies,
"No, I'm Tessa Sanderson".
Scotsmen don't buy bitter - lager or export
Fail![]()
Wasn't there 'Special' at one time? I vaguely remember it from my student days...many years ago!![]()
A man walks into a bar in Glasgow and says "Can I have a pint of larger and lime please?". The barman replies "I'm sorry, we don't do cocktails".Scotsmen don't buy bitter - lager or export

6 pints of special and a packet of salted nuts (and change) for £1 in 1975at the Student's Union on the Heriot Watt campus.
Did you ever get to the Teviot Row Union (Edinburgh Uni)? Old Victorian building with several bars...![]()
I went to them all
That's where I first met my wife...
... and bumped into her a few times at Nicky Tams.
Yep/ Three bars on different levels.That was down off George IV bridge? It had a downstairs/basement bar? You're bringing back memories...of what it was like to be 18...![]()
Oy!Back when I was 45 I was dragged to a student union by the then brother in law who was studying at Napier, The 2 things I remember were being asked for ID before they let me in and the overpowering stench of unwashed bodies.
The unwashed seem to frequent a number of establishments in Edinburgh, the two that spring to mind are The Three Sisters and The Tron which has a main bar area and two basement bar areas
Oy!
My son works at the Three Sisters and is scrupulously clean!
Not sure about the clientele, mind you...
Yeah, we had to deliver something there once. I thought the address was a wind-up until I checked.In my job I have to visit many police stations.
I was just downloading some directions and found this. Tickled me.![]()
