A young Scottish lad and lass were sitting on a low stonewall, holding hands, gazing out over the loch. For several minutes they sat silently.
Then finally Sadie looked at the Angus andsaid, "A penny for your thoughts, Angus."
"Well, uh, I was thinkin'... perhaps it's aboot time for a wee kiss."
Sadie blushed, then leaned over and kissed him lightly on the cheek. Then he blushed. The two turned once again to gaze out over the loch.
Minutes passed and Sadie spoke again. "Another penny for your thoughts, Angus."
"Well, uh, I was thinkin' perhaps it's noo aboot time for a wee cuddle."
Sadie blushed, then leaned over and cuddled him for a few seconds. Then he blushed. And the two turned once again to gaze out over the loch.
After a while, Sadie again said, "Another penny for your thoughts, Angus."
"Well, uh, I was thinkin' perhaps it's aboot time you let me put my hand on your leg."
Sadie blushed, then took his hand and put it on her knee. Then he blushed. Then the two turned once again to gaze out over the loch before Sadie spoke again.
"Another penny for your thoughts, Angus."
The young man glanced down with a furled brow "Well, noo," he said, "my thoughts are a wee bit more serious this time.'
"Really?" said the lass in a whisper, filled with anticipation.
"Aye," said the lad, nodding.
Sadie looked away in shyness, began to blush, and bit her lip in anticipation of the ultimate request.
Then he said, "Dae ye nae think it's aboot time ye paid me the first three pennies?"
