A bunch of locals were drinking heavily in an old Irish pub & going on about Putin. One of them decides to phone the Russian Embassy to tell them off & he gets through to the Ambassador:
"Hey, your lads better piss off out'ta the Ukraine or we’ll have to sort you out, yeah!"
Russian Ambassador: "Who are you & what makes you think you could do that?"
"We are all members of the local football club & we have a s**t-load of shotguns, 4x4s and stuff as well as about 50 good lads. Our ancestors fought the Brits, I’ll have you know, so if you want a war, our lads are ready!"
Russian Ambassador: "Apart from our equipment we could send a million troops if you want to fight."
(long silence follows)... then ..."Well okay, forget about the war so...."
"Ah-Ha! Afraid of the consequences eh?"
"Of course not! We have only enough for ourselves. What the hell would we do with a million prisoners!?!"

Speaking of the Irish, check out Brendan Kavanagh on YouTube. He plays public pianos in London and this will cheer you up! Guaranteed! Have a beautiful MAYDAY, MAYDAY!

Thank you, CBT! I saw that one before, but I happily watched it again. He's live a lot, too.
