A drunk man

Some friends hired a bus to go to the seaside for the day. When they returned to the bus late at night to go home, someone was lying on the ground beside it. They looked at him and discovered that he was a man from their town whom they were sure had not come on their bus. He was very drunk.

'I suppose he came in another bus,' one of the men said, 'and missed it when it left for home because he was drunk. Now he's come to our bus to go back in that.'

'Two men put him into the bus. He did not wake up during the drive back, and when the bus arrived, they took him to his home, still very drunk.

They knocked at the door for several minutes, and then a neighbour opened a window and said, 'It's no use knocking there. They've gone to the seaside for two weeks.'
