SUDDENLY A COW JUMPS OUT INTO THE ROAD;

THEY HIT IT FULL ON AND THE CAR COMES TO A STOP. SARAH IN HER USUAL JAUNTY MANNER, SAYS

TO THE CHAUFFEUR "YOU GET OUT AND CHECK - YOU WERE DRIVING."

THE CHAUFFEUR GETS OUT, CHECKS AND REPORTS THAT THE ANIMAL IS DEAD.

"YOU WERE DRIVING, GO AND TELL THE FARMER" SAYS SARAH, "I CAN'T AFFORD TO BE BLAMED FOR ANYTHING."

THE CHAUFFEUR WALKS UP THE DRIVE TO THE FARMHOUSE AND RETURNS FIVE HOURS LATER TOTALLY PLASTERED, HIS HAIR RUFFLED AND

WITH A BIG GRIN ON HIS FACE.

"MY GOD, WHAT HAPPENED TO YOU?" ASKS SARAH. THE CHAUFFEUR REPLIES "WHEN I GOT THERE, THE FARMER OPENED HIS BEST BOTTLE OF SINGLE MALT WHISKEY.

THE WIFE GAVE ME A SLAP-UP MEAL AND THE DAUGHTER MADE LOVE TO ME".

"WHAT ON EARTH DID YOU SAY?" ASKS SARAH. "I KNOCKED ON THE DOOR AND WHEN IT ANSWERED,

I SAID TO THEM I'M SARAH HANSON-YOUNG'S CHAUFFEUR AND I'VE JUST KILLED THE COW."
