  2. Another Story

    Share Share Post
    A countryman once employed a city girl. When she came, he showed her around the farmyard. When it came to milking time he handed her a stool and said "here is your milking stool".
    The farmer then left her and she went to milk a cow. After a minute she followed him in and said "I can't manage, the cow won't sit on the stool."
