When a tradesman finishes a job at a house in Scotland, it is an old custom to offer him a wee drink. 'Would you like a wee dram,' the lady-of-the-house asked a joiner. 'A wouldna' say No,' he replied. The lady produced the bottle. 'How do you like it, Sandy?' she asked. He replied: 'Half whisky and half water. An' pit in plenty o' water.'
