The man from the Ministry of agriculture called at the farm to find out what wages were being paid to the farm labourers..........The farmer tells him that he has four working there, There's Bill, been with me for over four years, works about 50 hr per week, gets paid £200 and has free board and lodging.
Then there's Harry, been with me 2 yrs, works about 40 hrs a week, gets £150 a week and free board and lodging.....
Then there's John, he's 17, works about 35 hrs a week, gets £100 per week and free board and Lodging...
Then there's the Half Wit, been here 40 odd yrs, works between 90 and 100 hrs a week, gets £25 a week and a free bottle of scotch each Saturday, pays his own board and lodging and gets to sleep with my wife a couple of times a week ., I see says the man from the ministry, "where can I find this half wit as I'd like a word with him"....
You're talking to him says the farmer.

Two half-wits make one whole wit!
