One very hot day there were three men an Irishman a Scotsman and an English man sitting alongside of a road. A motorist came on a stopped and said he would give five pounds to whichever of the three were the laziest. The Scotsman got up and went over to the car for money but he did not get it. The Englishman got up and went over halfway but he did not get it either. The Irishman sat there all the time and told the Motorist to come over with it to him so he got the money- Informant
