You could die of thirst in Texas..........

We went into an eating house in Texas and ordered a meal. As we had a long drive in front of us we ordered water rather than wine or beer.

"Worrter" drawled the waitress "We don' keep it"

She looked Hispanic, so as we were in Texas I repeated the request in Spanish.

"Agua, por favor"

"Oh" she said, "you mean WADDAH"

Fortunately most places understand the Brit pronunciation of Budweiser

'Hello muddah, hello fardah'

The most usual drink to accompany a meal in Texas is iced tea - by the gallon! Very refreshing and, usually, free fill-ups.
