One day Bill was working in a field and the day turned wet.
There was a big bush in the field and when the showers came he stood under the bush.
Just before dinner there was a very heavy shower and Bill remained under the bush for a considerable time.
When it had cleared, he went to his dinner and when he had finished he asked the farmer, "Shall I go to where I was before dinner?" The farmer said "Of course" so Bill went out and stood under the bush for the rest of the day although it was not raining.
