So, I went googling my merry way about,
and I scared this up in a newspaper archive.

The British love their Bible, beads, and beer.
The Scots keep the Sabbath and everything they can lay their hands on.
The Welsh pray on their knees on the Sabbath, and the other six days of the week, they prey on their neighbour.
And the Irish want something very badly, but they don't know what it is.

(I'm just reporting this one --
the bit about the British I'm pretty sure I DON'T understand.)
