The Queen whispers to the Pope out of the corner of her mouth "I bet you a tenner that I can make every English person in the crowd go wild with just a wave of my hand."

The Pope says "No way. You can't do that."

The Queen says, "Watch this".

With those words, the Queen waves her hand and every English person in the crowd goes crazy, waving their little plastic Union Jacks on sticks and cheering, basically going ballistic.

So the Pope is standing there going "Uh oh, what am I going to do? I never thought she'd be able to do it." So he thinks to himself for a minute and then he turns to her and says, "I bet you I can make every IRISH person in the crowd go wild, not just now, but for the rest of the week, with just one nod of my head."

The Queen, in disbelief says "No way, it can't be done."

So the Pope headbutts her....

Aonghus decided to keep a few hives of bees on his farm and so the first year Eoin was curious to know how he got on with them.
'Had you any luck with the bees Aonghus?' Eoin asked.
"Oh, the best .. the very best,' Aonghus chuckled.
'So then you got a lot of honey did you then?'
'Not a drop,' chortled Aonghus,'but they stung my mother-in-law seven times!!'

He was showing the visitors the historical places of the area as he drove the bus.
'Here in Ballynastraffan we beat the British in 1641 . . .'
After much picture taking by the tourists, the bus went on to the next stop.
'And t'was here the Irish thrashed the base, brutal and bloody saxon in 1798...'
Again more photos and again the bus went on a little further.
'On this self-same spot, ladies and gentlemen, one hundred and twenty years ago we soundly knocked the unholy lard out of a crowd of British redcoats in spite of all their nasty treachery could do.'
Finally, an English tourist couldn't stand it any longer. 'Look,' he said, 'surely the British must have beaten the Irish someplace or other???
The bus driver glared back and replied, 'Not on THIS bus they didn't!!!

Then there was the Irishman who was asked the difference between an explosion and a collision. "Well, he replied, 'in a collision there you are but in an explosion, where are you??'

What does an Irishman get when he eats Italian food?
"Gaelic breath"*grin*
