Surprise!

Little ten-year-old Freddie goes for a long weekend with his uncle, a wealthy farm owner.

One evening, as Uncle John and his wife are entertaining guests with cocktails, they are interrupted by an out-of-breath Freddie who shouts out, "Uncle John! Come quick! The bull is f*cking the cow!"

Uncle John is highly embarrassed by his nephew's language and, taking young Freddie aside, explains that a certain amount of decorum is required.

"You should have said, 'The bull is surprising the cow' - not some filth that you've picked up in the playground," he says.

A few days later, Freddie comes in again as his aunt and uncle are entertaining. "Uncle John! The bull is surprising the cows!"

The adults share a knowing grin. Uncle John says, "Thank you, Freddie, but surely you meant to say the cow, not cows. A bull cannot 'surprise' more than one cow at a time, you know…"

"Yes, he can!" replies his obstinate nephew. "He's f*cking the horse!"
