This guy gets lost and drives straight through the centre of a small unfamiliar village, only to find his way blocked by a funeral procession. Behind the coffin an elderly mans walks silently dressed in black, followed by a very long line of men all walking slowly and silently. The guy thinks this must have been a very important person with all those people attending the funeral. So he reels down his window and calls out to the men behind the coffin:
- ‘Excuse me Sir, can you tell me who’s funeral this is?’
- It’s my wife’ came the reply.
- ‘And what happened to her, if I may ask?' continues the guy.
- ‘Well she got bitten by our pet dog and died’.
Quickly taking this new information in the guy says:
- ‘Sorry to trouble you on this difficult day, but when the funeral is over could I possibly borrow your dog?’
- ‘Sure thing’ came the reply, ‘just join the queue…’
