Today's laugh........sat in the Pig & Whistle in Queen Street pondering on the fact that the only drawback with these new glasses is the fact I can see how yeuch the local blokes are ![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
And this guy walks up to the bar in vest and indecent shorts........now this is a Brit pub, for those who don't know Brisbane, proper beer, Bulmers cider, decent football etc.....so the guy mutters something like "grab me a schooner of heavy stuff"
to which the barman replies "Does sir mean he would like a pint of best bitter?"
Witchy nearly falls off her stool laughing, Aussie bloke looks confused and says "ÿeah whatever maaaaate" Ends up with a pint in front of him and announces that anyone who can drink that much beer needs a medal
So much for the hardened Aussie drinker! Sooooo funny though, this barman with a perfect BBC accent and completely dead-pan, sorting out Mr Idiot ![Big Grin](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/biggrin.gif)

Apologies if I'm taking this discussion a bit off track, but besides agreeing with Polly that Comfortably Numb is indeed one of the best songs in the history of time, I have been watching this one and I just have to say that Dave Gilmour is one of the most versatile and best British artistes I have ever seen. I hope those Roger Waters fans out there do not beg to differ ![Wink](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/wink.gif)
Part 2 and the "Finale" are excellent ones as well..
