An Arab Sheik was admitted to St Vincent's Hospital for heart surgery but prior to the surgery the doctors needed a supply of his blood type in case the need arose. The gentleman had a rare type of blood which couldn't be found locally so the call went out to all potential donors.
Finally a Scot was located who had a similar blood type. The Scot willingly donated his blood for the Arab.
After the surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman, as appreciation for
giving his blood, a new BMW, diamonds & a cheque for £10,000.
A couple of weeks later the Arab had to go through a corrective surgery procedure. His surgeon telephoned the Scotsman who was more than happy to donate his blood again.
After the second surgery, the Arab sent the Scotsman a thank-you card & a jar of candies.
The Scotsman was shocked that the Arab this time did not reciprocate
his kind gesture as he had anticipated.
He phoned the Arab & asked him: "I thought you would be generous
again, that you would give me another BMW, diamonds & money... But you only gave me a thank-you card & a jar of candies".
To this the Arab replied: "Aye, but I now have Scottish blood in my veins".
