DUMB CITY MAN

A city man from Wellington decided to take a weekend break in die country hunting deer. He drove out until he came across a farm and asked the farmer if he could hunt on his land. The farmer told the man he could hunt as long as steered clear of his prize bull which was worth $3,000. A few hours later, the city man returned to the farmer and, shaking his head, nervously told him that he had shot his bull by mistake. Without another word, the man wrote out a cheque for $3,500, gave it to the farmer and left. The farmer went to look at his prize bull and was more than delighted when he found it completely undisturbed, grazing in its pasture. Searching the rest of his farm, he discovered the body of a buck. The city man had been too thick to know the difference between a bull and a deer. The farmer couldn't believe his luck - $3,500 the richer and three weeks worth of venison.
