Scottish Humor
Willie and Jeannie McCotton were getting on in years but still liked to go out to smart restaurants on special occasions. So to celebrate the 65th birthday of their first son, they took a taxi to the up-market Pompadour Restaurant in Edinburgh's Caledonian Hotel. But as they hadn't made a reservation, they were told there would be a 45-minute wait for a table. Willie McCotton frowned and addressed the head waiter: "Young man, we're both 90 years old. We may not have 45 minutes." They were seated immediately.
