Scouser Eggs


Far from their Liverpool home, a young Scouse couple are stranded on the M25 one cold and rainy night with a broken down motorbike. A friendly trucker stops to see if there's anything he can do to help, but explains that there isn't room in his cab to give them a lift. "Aw ey mate", says the male Scouser plaintively, "Giz a lift - we'll squeeze in the back if yer like."

The trucker is so touched by this eloquent plea that he agrees to their request. He tells them they'll have to squeeze in with the load he's hauling, which is 20,000 footballs, but if they can fit, they're welcome to a ride - he'll even take the bike too if they want.

By the time they are all loaded up, the trucker is really late and so puts his foot down. Sure enough, just south of Watford he gets pulled over for speeding. The good officer asks the driver what he's got in the back of his truck, to which he begins to reply "Scouse,,,,", then thinks better of it and in panic says, "er... eggs!", which is the load he was carrying last week. The policeman, noticing his odd behaviour decides to take a look for himself.

He opens the back door and quickly shuts it and locks it, face as white as a sheet. He gets onto his radio and calls for immediate backup from as many officers as possible.

The police dispatcher asks what on earth requires so many officers. "I've got a wagon with 20,000 Scouser eggs in it - the first 2 have hatched and the swines have managed to nick a motorbike already!".
