I don't generally do ethnic jokes, but sometimes they are funnier than they are offensive. The following is told by the Scots. I hope no English are hurt in the telling of it.

Five Englishmen boarded a train just behind five Scots, who, as a group had only purchased one ticket. Just before the conductor came through, all the Scots piled into the toilet stall at the back of the car. As the conductor passed the stall, he knocked and called"Tickets, please!" and one of the Scots slid a ticket under the door. It was punched, pushed back under the door, and when it was safe all the Scots came out and took their seats.

The Englishmen were tremendously impressed by the Scots' ingenuity. On the trip back, the five Englishmen decided to try this themselves and purchased only one ticket. They noticed that, oddly, the Scots had not purchased any tickets this time. Anyway, again, just before the conductor came through, the Scots piled into one of the toilet stalls, the Englishmen into the one across the ailse. Soon the sound ot "Tickets please!" Could be heard.

A ticket appeared out from under the Englishmen's door. The Scots' door opened, a hand reached out , snatched the ticket, and closed the door.
