THE STINKER

"Strewth," exclaimed Jack Collins, "that dog's a real stinker! I don't know how he puts up with himself. If I dropped bombs like that, I'd walk around with my head in a paper bag, just to protect myself."

"Everyone likes their own smells," said Mrs Collins. Jack raised his eyebrows and smirked at her, so she added, "Or so they say."

"Well, it's too much for me, Maureen. He's going to have to go out in the yard."

"It's his diet," said Maureen, "eating what he eats, it's going to make smells. And he gulps it down so fast, he must be swallowing air."

"Tally would let off even if you fed him on roses," said her husband, shaking his head, half in wonder. "Shame it's a talent you can't be paid for. We'd all be millionaires."
