Silly jokes

Recommended Posts

Not sure if this one's a bit of an urban myth or has a ring of truth. However, around the turn of last century, German table wines were very popular, particularly with the more adventurous palate of the younger generation. Accordingly, a group of Oxford University scholars went into a local restaurant for lunch, and, when approached by the wine waiter, one of the group announced whimsically that they'd have some "hic, haec, hock".

 

A little later, when the food had arrived, but the wine was nowhere to be seen, the young man summoned the wine waiter once again to explain his tardiness. "What has happened to our wine?", he demanded.

 

"I'm terribly sorry, Sir", the waiter replied, "I thought you had declined."
