How many miles to the gallon do you get ?

Scottish thought for the day:


A recent study conducted by Aberdeen University found that the average Scotsman walks about 900 miles a year.

Another study by the Scottish Medical Association found that Scotsmen drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a year!!

This means, on average, Scotsmen get about 41 miles to the gallon.

Kind Of Makes You Proud to Be Scottish doesn't it!

Cheers!!

Is that beer or whiskey, or does that depend which end of Glasgow you live?

Not great at the accent, but its something like.....

*clears throat*

"BUCK-FAAAAST!"

followed by....

"Mar-We-it" which i think roughly translates to - Mad with it - whatever that means

Surely if your that piss*d then you may cover X amount of miles but only travel forward

X/ ( 2 x the balance limit of alchohol consumed)

Hmmm, interesting, I got this email today

Food for thought...........

Stand proud you noble swingers of clubs and losers of balls....
A recent study found the average golfer walks about 900 miles a year.
Another study found golfers drink, on average, 22 gallons of alcohol a Year.
That means, on average, golfers get about 41 miles to the gallon.
Kind of makes you proud. Almost

Perhaps it's a Scottish golfer???
