Lesson46??? Expensive and uncomfortable
When a plane from
London arrived at Sydney airport, workers began to unload a number of wooden
boxes which contained clothing. No one could account for the fact that one of
the boxes was extremely heavy. It suddenly occurred to one of the workers to
open up the box. He was astonished at what he found. A man was lying in the box
on top of a pile of woolen goods. He was so surprised at being discovered that
he did not even try to run away. After he was arrested, the man admitted hiding
in the box before the plane left London. He had had a long and uncomfortable
trip, for he had been confined to the wooden box for over eighteen hours. The
man was ordered to pay £3,500 for the cost of the trip. The normal price of a ticket is£2,000 !
