Four retired men are walking down a street in Brighton. They turn a corner and see a sign that says, "Retirees Bar - ALL drinks 20p".
They look at each other and then go in, thinking this is too good to be true.
The bartender says in a voice that carries across the room, "Come on in and let me pour one for you! What'll it be, gentlemen?"
There's a fully stocked bar, so each of the men orders a malt whisky. In no time the bartender serves up four malt whisky and says, "That'll be 20p each, please."
The four guys stare at the bartender for a moment, then at each other.
They can't believe their good luck. They pay the 80p, finish their whiskies, and order another round.
Again, four excellent malt whisky are produced, with the bartender again saying, "That's 80p, please."
They pay, but their curiosity gets the better of them.
They've each had two malt whisky and haven't even spent £2 yet.
Finally one of them says, "How can you afford to serve malt whisky as good as these for 20p apiece?"
"When I retired" the bartender says, " I always wanted to own a bar. Last year I hit the Euromillions Jackpot for £125 million and decided to open this place. Every drink costs 20p. Wine, spirits, beer, it's all the same."
"Wow! That's some story!" one of the men says.
As the four of them sip at their whiskies, they can't help noticing seven other people at the end of the bar who don't have any drinks in front of them and haven't ordered anything the whole time they've been there.
Nodding at the seven at the end of the bar, one of the men asks the Bartender, "What's with them?"
The bartender says, "They're pensioners from Aberdeen......They're waiting for Happy Hour when drinks are half-price!"
Cheers, Bobj.
