  1. There were three men walking along a railway bridge. An Englishman a Scotsman and an Irishman. They saw a football match in a field. The teams were England and Scotland. The men went into the feild and said the Englishman there is a goal for England, said the Scotsman there is one for Scotsland. And said the Irishman there are two for Meath Hospital and he threw the Englishman and the Scotsman down on the ground,
