Not sure if I’ve put this one up before!!!!!
I was driving in mid Wales a number of years ago when broke down in a torrential storm.
After several hours I noticed a small farm so headed in that direction, as I neared the gate a pig with a wooden leg came out and barked at me several times, pinning me to down.
A young buxom lady came to the door of the farm house and whistled to the pig that immediately runs to her side.
“Sorry….” I said, “But I have broken down, can I use your phone”
“Yes” she said
After phoning for a recovery truck I sensitively asked about the pig and its wooden leg.
“Oh! Trevor” she said, “Well, a number of years ago my husband was ploughing his field when his tractor turned over and trapped him underneath…..”
She went on to explain how the pig leapt out of his pen and rushed to the tractor, after digging for a few minutes dragged her husband out.
“……and then one day” she went on, “ we had a chip pan fire, I run out of the house, but Trevor leapt out of the pen and smashed through the front door, rushed up stairs and dragged out our child”
I was amazed to hear such a story of heroic deeds…
“But what about the wooden leg” I asked…she looked at me and said...
“Oh…… you don’t eat a good pig like that all at once”
