Whilst walking through Liverpool with the missus many years ago
she remarked on what a nice city she thought it was, when from nowhere up popped a chirpy local who loudly informed us "The best!"
Not that exciting a story, I grant you, but it amused us at the time.

Later that same day we were chased down a side street by a homeless.
"Why are you running away?" he said.
"Why are you chasing us?" we replied.
Stop chasing me and I'll stop running away. Fun times.

First time I was in Liverpool
I was drinking heavily in the Cock and Bottle in Wavertree. This scally came up to me and asked me if I wanted to purchase any of his shoplifted cheese!

Similarly
I was speaking to a chap in a Liverpool pub about work (I know!) and was confused when he kept wanting to know what my bonus was.
Turns out he meant "What do you steal from your employers?"

Except he can pronounce his Ls, so this doesn't really work within the context of the joke.

It's 50/50 at best, I agree.
At least the last bit works.

Also, it's not pronounced like lavatory
It's pronounced like the action of picking up a tree, and waving it.
