The assistant from the Customer Service came across at this time saying "If there is anyone in the line with a few items in their basket, none of which needed to be weighed, I will check out their groceries at the desk." Because I had the sprouts which needed to be weighted, the young lady accepted the offer and walked away waving goodbye.

Eventually my turn came at the checkout.I was walking away when I met my new friend once again who handed me a beautiful box of Christmas cookies.With a big hug she said "Hope you have a lovely Christmas." She had been into Superdrug to buy me cookies while I was still queuing in Cockhedge.

What a generosity to a stranger! I was so surprised you could have knocked me down with a feather.My Good Samaritan would never know what a joyful Christmas day I had with my family.Telling them this story, as we ate around the table, kept everyone spellbound

  Farmer Joe responded, “Well, I will tell you what happened.I had just loaded my favorite mule(骡子)Bessie into the…” “I didn't ask for any details,” the lawyer interrupted, “Just answer the question.Did you not say, at the scene of the accident, ‘I'm fine? '”

  Farmer Joe said, “Well, I had just got Bessie into the cart and I was driving down the road…”

  The lawyer interrupted again and said, “Judge, I am trying to make clear the fact that, at the scene of the accident, this man told the police on the scene that he was just fine.Now several weeks after the accident he is trying to cover the fact.I believe he is telling lies.Please tell him to simply answer the question.”

  By this time the Judge was fairly interested in Farmer Joe's answer and said to the lawyer, “I'd like to hear what he has to say about his favorite mule Bessie.”

  Joe thanked the Judge and went on, “Well, as I was saying, I had just loaded Bessie, my favorite mule, into the cart and was driving her down the road when this huge truck ran into the stop sign and pushed my cart right in the side.I was thrown into one side and Bessie was thrown into the other.”

  “I was hurt so badly that I didn't want to move.However, I could hear old Bessie breathing loudly and groaning(呻吟).I knew she was in great pain.Shortly after the accident a traffic policeman came to the scene.He could hear Bessie groaning so he went over to her.After he looked at her, he took out his gun and shot her between the eyes.Then the patrolman came across the road with his gun and looked at me.He said, “Your mule was in such pain that I had to shoot her.How are you feeling?”
