AN AMERICAN AND A WELSH FARMER

AN AMERICAN FARMER WAS ON HOLIDAY IN WALES. 

HE COULD NOT RESIST EXPLORING THE HILL FARMS

NORTH OF ABERYSTWYTH. 

AT LUNCH TIME HE DROPPED INTO A PUB AND

FELL INTO EASY CONVERSATION WITH A WELSH FARMER.

'HOW BIG IS YOUR SPREAD?'  

ASKED THE AMERICAN.

'WELL LOOK YOU, IT'S ABOUT 20 ACRES HE SAID' . 

ONLY 20 ACRES THE AMERICAN RESPONDED,

BACK IN TEXAS I CAN GET UP AT SUNRISE, SADDLE MY HORSE

AND RIDE ALL DAY, WHEN I RETURN AT SUPPER TIME,

I'LL BE LUCKY TO COVER HALF MY FARM'.

'DEW DEW' , SAID THE WELSHMAN,

'I ONCE HAD A HORSE LIKE THAT BUT

SENT HIM TO THE KNACKERS YARD.'
