Four men were sitting in a bar in London, having a drink. They were talking about dogs.
"If you want to buy a nice dog," said the first man. "One of my greyhounds is racing in Manchester this evening. Why don’t you come and watch the race If you like the dog, you can buy it. "
"I’ 11 buy it if it wins the race," said the second man.
"And I’ 11 buy it if it loses the race," said the third man.
"My family won’ t let me get a dog, but I’ d like to come and see the race," said the fourth man.
They all went to Manchester to see the race, but they went there in different ways, the first man by car, the second man by plane, the third man by train and the fourth by bus.
To cut a long story short, the dog won the race; the second man bought the dog from the first man, and they went to a restaurant to celebrate.
While eating, they discussed the different ways of getting to Manchester, and wrote the information on the tablecloth, like this:
| Length of Journey | Cost of journey | |

| Third man (by train) | 2hrs 30rains | ￡ 14.80 |
| Fourth man (by bus) | 4hrs 30nfins | ￡ 6.00 |
Charlie said, "Well, that’s interesting. My journey was quicker than Albert’s or Dave’ s. "
"That’ s right," said Albert, "but mine cost less than yours, Charlie, and less than Dave’ s. "
"I don’t care how long a journey, takes," said Dave, "you’ll never see me in a plane. I’m terrified of flying."
