A duck walks into a bar and orders a beer and a sandwich.

The bartender says, "But you're a duck."

"Yep, that is very true," says the duck.

"And you talk, too!" exclaims the bartender.

"Indeed I do," says the duck, "I'd like a large beer, and one of your finest sandwiches."

"Certainly," says the bartender, "it's just we don't get to see too many ducks in this pub. What are you doing around these parts?"

"I'm working for a builder in this area," replies the duck.

So then the duck has his beer and sandwich, pays up and leaves.

One day, the ringleader of a circus comes into the pub, and the bartender tells him about his clever friend, the talking duck.

"Marvelous!" says the ringleader, "ask him to come over and see me."

The next day, the duck comes into the pub. The bartender says, "Hey, Mr Duck, you're in luck. I lined you up with a top job paying really good money!"

"Yeah?" says the duck, "where?"

"At the circus," says the bartender.

"The circus?"

"That's right," replies the bartender.

"That place with all those animals? With the great big tent?"

"Yes, that's right," says the bartender.

The duck looks confused.

"So what do they want with a plasterer?"

This duck walks into a crowded city pub and asks the bartender, "Do you have any grapes?" The bartender says "No, sir." The duck says, "Cheers!" and leaves.

The next day the duck is back in the pub. He says, "I'm curious. Are you certain you don't have any fruit left? Such as juicy little grapes, by any chance?" The bartender says no, and the duck goes away.

Two days later, the duck's back. He walks up to the bar, and sees the bartender. "Hello, I'm here again, bartender! Might you have some nice fresh grapes to cheer me up this evening?"

This irritates the bartender, Harry, who's extremely tired and wound up, and he loses his composure at this juncture. He starts to twitch: he's boiling mad. He screams at the duck, "Listen to me, you wretched, scrawny little bird! You heard me! I told you no, I didn't, and if you keep asking me, I will nail both your thick, webbed feet to the floor, OK?"

The duck seems a little startled at his reaction and hurries away.

Despite this, the duck returns a day later. He walks up to the bar and asks the bartender, "Got any nails?"

The bartender replied, "No," and the duck said, "Good! Got any grapes?"
