An American nurse is working in a Scottish hospital and having real difficulty with the accents.
She’s instructed to go check on a patient who’s looking “a wee bit peely-wally.”
When she arrives at his bed, the pale, elderly gentleman grabs her arm and says, “Nairse, Nairse, aire me testicles black?”
She looks around, but no other staff are in sight.
Clinging to her arm, he persists: “Are me testicles black? Are me testicles black?”
Without further ado, the nurse does as she’s trained: she puts on gloves, lifts up the patient’s blanket, and checks each testicle in turn.
“They look fine,” she reassures him.
The patient stares at her, with eyes wide open. He clears his throat. “Thankee, nairse. That was very nice, ye ken. But please tell me — are me test results back?”
