The Black Hen.
I am going to tell you a story my Dad told me many years ago.
Before I start I must add this could certainly be construed as a rather cruel act, and I am not condoning it, but times were different back then and political correctness had never been heard of. My Dad knew a farmers family back in the 40`s, who were a rough crowd, and dirt poor. They had some hens and one of the hens was always jet black, and my Dad asked me why this was the case. One of the sons said he would show him why and captured the black hen.
He got some rope, tied one of the hens feet to one end of the rope, and a brick to the other. He then clambered onto the farmhouse roof, and let the brick go down the chimney.
The hen let out a great shriek and disappeared down the chimney flapping its wings. As the hen flapped its wings it brushed the chimney all the way down, removing all the build up of soot as it fell. The hen emerged from the chimney at the bottom a tad irritated but in one piece! "Cheaper than any chimney sweep" the farmers son grinned.
