The local economy...
Posted: 10 May 2013, 09:54A fisherman and Rick are in a bar in Padstow.
"Can you lend me a fiver?" asks the fisherman.
"Sure" says Rick "but it's at 20%"
"That's a bit steep" say the fisherman.
"Take it or leave it" says Rick.
So, the fisherman wanders off with Rick's fiver.
That Friday the fisherman is back in the bar with a bin bag...
"Is Rick in?" he asks the barman.
"Usual table" the barman replies.
The fisherman finds Rick and plonks the bag on the table.
"It for you" he says.
Rick carefully opens the bag to find a wriggly squirmy thing in there, and the smell is atrocious. Gagging he asks "What's the hell is this?"
To which the fisherman replies "It's the sick squid I owe you."
