Wealthy Arab

Post by Dev One »

A wealthy Arab Sheik was admitted to hospital for heart surgery, but prior
to the surgery, the doctors needed to store his type of blood in case the
need arose.

As the gentleman had a rare type of blood, it couldn't be found locally,
so, the call went out.


Finally a Scotsman was located who had a similar blood type. The Scot
willingly donated his blood for the Arab.

After the surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman in appreciation for giving
his blood, a new BMW, 5 carats of diamonds, and $50,000 dollars.

A couple of days later, once again, the Arab had to go through a corrective
surgery.

The hospital telephoned the Scotsman who was more than happy to donate more
of his blood again.

After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman a thank-you card and a
box of Black Magic chocolates.

The Scotsman was shocked that the Arab did not reciprocate his kind gesture
as he had before.

He phoned the Arab and asked him: "I thought you would be generous again,
that you would give me another BMW,

diamonds and money .. but you only gave me a thank-you card and a box of
chocolates."





To this the Arab replied: "Aye laddie, but I now have Scottish blood in ma
veins".

Could have been worse, a Yorkshire man's blood - and as you must be aware, a Yorkshire man is a Scotsman with his streak of generosity removed :agree:

You better believe it Nigel.

There are people putting it about that on the rare occasion when I pull a note out of my wallet - the Queen blinks.
