Apologies if this one has been told before - I heard it on Capital Radio in London. The presenter (Mike Osmond?) was an ex RN Stoker and he was relating how he came in to work early one morning, still dark, cold and very wet outside. There, outside the capital radio building, crashed out on a sheet of corrugated cardboard for a bed was a one armed beggar, obviously in dire need of a bath and some clean clothes. Next to him was a sign that read, 'Please spare some change for an old soldier who lost an arm in the South Atlantic in 1982.'
Well, feeling sorry for this hero of the South Atlantic, our presenter fishes out a brand new 20 pound note and puts it into the little begging bowl at the side of our down and out hero - who then grabs it very quickly and announces "Muchos gracias Senor."
