“Paddy was walking along the road one day.”
Paddy was walking along the road one day. He met a man who said "Which way do you go to Birr Paddy". "How do you know my name is Paddy", asked Paddy. "I guessed it", the man answered. "Well", said Paddy. "If you are so good at guessing you can guess the road to Birr".
