CANDY FOR THE BULL
A SIX HOUR WAIT.'
Three women were driving through a lonely estate at Liverpool, Australia.
As they went through the boundary gate a bull charged down the paddock towards the car. At that moment the engine stalled, and one of the Women would have had to get out of the car to crank it before it would start again.
The bull stood menacingly near by, and all attempts to frighten it off failed. For six hours the terrified women sat in the safety of the car until their predicament was noticed by a man on a farm. He enticed the bull away and then explained that the wife of the owner of the bull was in the habit of giving it sweets as she passed through the gate, and the patient creature had been waiting sjx hours for his recognition!
