    “Two Irishmen and two Englishmen were playing cards.”

    Share Share Post
    Two Irishmen and Two Englishmen were playing cards. The two Irishmen were partners and one used to say to the other "Ar bhfuil agat? Ta." and the other Irishman used say "Ta" when he had good cards. The two Englishmen were losing and in the end they stood up from the table and said that they would never play the game of "Ar bhfuil agat? Ta."
