Billy Bit My Bum

A true story

At 80 years of age, my grandmother had no indoor plumbing, and she was still chopping firewood and pumping water by hand.

Once, not wanting to trek to the outhouse, my aunt Gladys went beside the house to do her business.

Unfortunately, Billy, my grandmother’s pet goose, was sleeping in the Azaleas. He did not appreciate the warm shower.

We were all startled and then amused when she started screeching, “Billy bit my bum.”

Jim McAulay🍁 adds a joke to every story he writes.

A goose will never shake hands with other geese, geese never give each other high fives.

They prefer goosebumps!
