from a Greek, who also had a restaurant.

Every day they came out of their restaurants and glared at each other across the road.

"Flied Lice Velly Nice" (the Greek would yell at the Chinaman, taking the mickey out of the Chinaman's inability to pronounce the letter 'R' in the English language)

To cut the story short.

Chinese bloke got so fed up with this he went for 'spoken' English lessons..... Came back to his shop and there was the Greek again:

"Flied Lice Velly Nice" nah nah nee nah nah

To which the Chinaman replied, in a very Oxford accented English:

"As a matter of fact, fRied Rice is veRy nice .... You lotten Gleek Plick!"
