Just Gherkin His Chain
A Yank in a London cab was slagging off how long Kings Cross Station, the London Eye and Wembley Stadium were taking to build and saying that if it was in AMERICA these buildings would have been finished on time...Then he went on about the 2012 olympics in England saying they wont be ready in time considering the fact a new transport system had to be built through the East End of London, etc...
By the time the Taxi got into the City of London The Yank pointed to the newly erected building nicknamed the Gherkin, he then asked the Cabbie how long it took to build:
Cabbie: Which building, sir?
Yank: The cigar shaped one.
Cabbie: Oh that one! It must have been built overnight it wasnt there yesterday!!!
