One for our Scots friends

At the 2003 World Womans' conference the first speaker from Canada stood
up:
"At last year's conference we spoke about being more assertive with our
husbands. Well, after the conference I went home and told my husband that I
would no longer cook for him and that he would have to do it himself. After
the first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after
the third day I saw that he had cooked a wonderful roast lamb."
The crowd cheered.

The second speaker from France stood up:
"After last year's conference I went home and told my husband that I would
no longer do his laundry and that he would have to do it himself. After the
first day I saw nothing. After the second day I saw nothing. But after the
third day I saw that he had not only done his own washing but my washing as
well."
The crowd cheered.

The third speaker from Glasgow stood up:
"Efter last year's conference ah went hame and telt ma man that I widnae dae
his cookin, cleanin or shoppin and that he wid hiftae dae it himsel. Efter
the first day ah saw nuthin'. Efter the second day ah saw nuthin'. But
efter the third day I could see a wee bit oot o ma left eye........"
