> G'day Folks,

> An American tourist in London wanders around, seeing the sights and
> occasionally stopping at some small pub to have a pint of beer. After a
> while, he finds himself in a very nice neighbor hood with stately
> residences.
> 
> No pubs, no restaurants, and worst of all no public restrooms.
> 
> However, he really has to pee, after all those pints of beer. He finds a
> narrow side street, with high walls surrounding the adjacent buildings and
> decides  to use the wall to solve his problem.
> 
> He is tapped on the shoulder by a London Bobby, who says, "Sir, you simply
> cannot do that here."
> 
> "I'm very sorry, officer," replies the American, "but I really have to pee,
> and I just can't find a public restroom."
> 
> Just follow me" says the Bobby. Then he leads the American to a back
> delivery alley to a gate, which he opens. "In there," points the Bobby,
> "Whi-z- a-way,  Sir, anywhere you like!!"
> 
> The fellow enters and finds himself in the most beautiful garden he has
> ever seen. Manicured grass lawns, big fountains, sculptured hedges, and
> huge  beds of flowers.
> 
> He relieves himself immediately. As he goes back through the gate, he says
> to the Bobby "That was really nice of you. Is that what you call English
> hospitality? “
> 
> 
> "No, Sir..." replied the Bobby, “That is what we call the........."
