Old Farmer

[Chris Lawrence]

An elderly man in North Queensland had owned a large farm for several years.

He had a large pond in the back. It was properly shaped for swimming, so he

fixed it up nice with picnic tables, timber embankment and fruit trees.

One evening the old farmer decided to go down to the pond as he hadn't been

there for a while, and look it over.

He grabbed a five-gallon bucket to bring back some fruit.

As he neared the pond, he heard voices shouting and laughing with glee.

As he came closer, he saw it was a bunch of young women skinny-dipping in his

pond. He made the women aware of his presence and they all went to the deep end.

One of the women shouted to him, 'we're not coming out until you leave!'

The old man frowned, 'I didn't come down here to watch you ladies swim naked

or make you get out of the pond naked.'

Holding the bucket up, he said, I just come down here to feed the croc...'

Some old men can still think fast.
