Alan worked in an office in the city. He worked hard and really looked forward to his holidays.
He usually went to the seaside, but one year he saw an advertisement in a newspaper. “Enjoy country life. Spend a few weeks at Willow Farm. Good food. Fresh air. Horse riding. Walking. Fishing. Great Prices.”
“This sounds like a good idea,” he thought. “I’ll spend a month at Willow Farm. I’ll enjoy horse riding, walking and fishing. They’ll make a change from sitting by the seaside and swimming.”
He wrote to the farmer and arranged to spend all of July on the farm. Then, on the first of July, he left for Willow Farm.
Four days later, he returned home.
“What was wrong with Willow Farm?” his friend, Jack, asked him. “Didn’t you enjoy country life?”
“Country life was fine,” Alan said. “But there was another problem.”
“Oh? What?”
“Well,” he explained, “the first day I was there a sheep died, and we had roast lamb for dinner.”
“What’s wrong with that?” Jack asked. “Fresh meat is the best.”
“I know, but on the second day a cow died, and we had roast beef for dinner.”
“Lucky you!”
“You don’t understand,” Alan said. “On the third day, a pig died and we had roast pork for dinner.”
“A different roast every day,” Jack exclaimed, “and you are complaining!”
“Let me finish,” Alan said. “On the fourth day, the farmer died, and I was so afraid that I didn’t stay for dinner!”
