Chap behind the counter replies.........No, it's a donut.

Guy checks into a hotel. Lady behind the desk asks:
"D'you wannae be called in the morning?
"Oh, yes please!"
"Then leave the windae open."


Chap chaps at the door. Chap answers the door. First chap says to the second chap:
"Is your granny in?"
"No, she's at Arbroath."
"Oh, I'll wait till she's feenished."


Young man and a woman on the dance floor.
Him: "Ya know, you're wan in a mull-yun."
Her: "So's yoor chances!"


(Don't ask me why that last one works better with a scottish accent, but it definitely does!)

Or a meringue sounds like "or am I wrong" (in a scottish accent I assume).

Say them in a overly strong Scottish accent and 'a meringue' sounds like 'am I wrong?' and Disney like 'does nay' (doesn't)

These jokes were told on Sunday at a rather drunken christening (i was sober.......driving ) by a true Scotsman who arrived in a kilt The father is Scottish and lots of the family were there. It was hailed as the funniest joke the father had ever heard, but he was rather worse for wear
