One fine spring day,Henri,an elderley french gentleman, is taking a walk down a country lane, outside his small town. As he is passing farmer Gascon's field, he hears a noise, so peering over the hedge he spots a young couple, naked making love..
After recovering from the initial shock he says to himself "ah ze young love, ze springtime, ze air ze flowers , c'est magnifique" he continues to watch, recalling similar exploits of his own youth.
Suddenly he draws a gasp and says "Mais.....Sacre Bleu !!...ze woman - she is dead"
He now skittles off down the lane, back to town to report what he's seen to Albert the police chief,
Arriving out of breath he starts to tell Albert what he's seen "Albert, Albert, zere is this man, zere is this woman, naked, making love in Farmer Gascon's field".
Albert smiles and replies " Henri Henri come now, you are not so old as to recall ze l'armour, ze springtime, ze air, ze flowers, zis is okay"
"Mais non,you do not understand ze woman ze is dead"...
Hearing this Albert sprints down to farmer Gascon's field, as the police car is being serviced..what he see's confirms what Henri has told him...he runs as fast as he can to Pierre the town doctor...
"Pierre, Pierre, this is Albert, in Farmer Gascon's field zere is a young couple,naked having sex"
To which Pierre replies "Albert I am a man of science, you must remember it is spring, ze air, ze flowers, au l'armour, zis is very natural "
Albert still out breath gasps in reply "non, you do not understand ze woman....she is dead"
Hearing this Pierre shouts "Mon Dieu" grabs his black medical bag, stuffs into it his thermometer, stethoscope and other tools jumps into his car and drives as fast as he can down to Farmer Gascon's field, where on arrival he gives the couple a full medical examination..
He drives back to the station where Albert and Henri are both waiting, on seeing them Pierre smiles patiently to the two men and says "Ah mon amis, do not worry, ze woman, she is not dead....she is english"...... |
