A Golfer is cupping his hand to scoop water from a Highland burn in St Andrew’s golf course.
A Groundskeeper shouts “Dinnae drink tha waater! Et’s foo ae coo’s Shite and Pish!"
The Golfer replies, ”My good fellow. I’m from England. Would you be kind enough to repeat that for me in English?"
The Keeper replies, “ I said use two hands - you’ll spill less that way."

Re: A Wee Scottish Tale:
So if the golfer had been a Kiwi, I presume the groundskeeper would have fetched a cup...

The Kiwi would have said "G/Day Jimmy im frae Dunedin"
Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than speak and remove all doubt....
