Title: City boy and the Donkey
Post by: fatherted on September 09, 2014, 22:40:06 PM
Morris, a city boy moved to the country and bought a donkey from an old farmer for £100. The farmer agreed to deliver the mule the next day.
The next day, the farmer drove up and said,
“Sorry, but I have some bad news. The donkey died.”
“Well then just give me my money back.”
“Can`t do that. I went and spent it already.”
“OK, then. Just unload the donkey.”
“What ya gonna do with him?”
“I`m going to raffle him off.”
“You can`t raffle off a dead donkey!”
“Sure I can. Watch me. I just won`t tell anybody he`s dead.”
A month later the farmer met up with the city boy and asked,
“Whatever happened with that dead donkey?”
“I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two pounds apiece and made a profit of £998. ”
“Didn`t anyone complain?”
“Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two pounds back.”
