[nilesfunnies] Fwd: Twenty past four


An RAF officer stationed out in the gulf decides to venture off the base
and look at the local life. He takes his hat, compass and water and
treks the few miles cross the dunes to the nearest settlement. Wandering
around he realises he hasn't brought his watch, he spots an old camel
trader reading a copy of the Times.

"Excuse me, I wonder if you could tell me the time?"

The old man puts his paper down, leans over and gently lifts the nearest
camel's testicles up with both hands and says; "It's twenty five past four".

Gobsmacked the officer offers the camel trader £100 if he can show him
how he read the time like that.

The old man pockets the money, beckons the officer to sit beside him, he
gently lifts the camel's balls once more and says; "See that clock on
the tower..."
