One for expats

A West Auckland girl goes to Income Support to register for the single parents' benefit.
"How many children?" asks the Income Support worker.
"10" replies the Westie girl.
"10?" says the Income Support worker, "What are their names?"
"Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne, Wayne and Wayne."
"Doesn't that get confusing?"
"Naah..", says the Westie girl, "it's great because if they are out playing in the street I just have to shout "WAYNE, YER DINNER'S READY" or "WAYNE GO TO BED NOW" and they all do it."
"What if you want to speak to one individually?" says the perturbed Income Support worker.
"That's easy," says the Westie girl, "I just use their surnames"
