A man was driving down a quiet country lane when out into the road strayed a rooster.
Whack1! The rooster disappeared under the car in a cloud of feathers.
Shaken, the man pulled over at the farmhouse2 and rang the doorbell.
A farmer appeared. The man somewhat nervously3 said, I think I killed your rooster, please allow me to replace him.
Suit yourself, the farmer replied, the hens are round the back.
