Let's Have Fun

Read the following story for fun.

Mr. Bean had a few days’ holidays, so he said, ‘I’m going to go to the
mountains by bus.’ He put on his best clothes, took a small bag, went to
the station and got into the bus. He had a beautiful cap, and he often put
his head out of the window during the trip and looked at the mountains.
But the wind pulled his cap off.

Mr. Bean quickly took his old bag and threw that out of the window too.
The other people in the carriage laughed. ‘Is your bag going to bring your

beautiful cap back?’ they asked.

‘No,’ Mr. Bean answered, ‘but there’s no name and no address in my cap,
and there’s a name and an address on the bag. Someone’s going to find both
of them near each other, and he’s going to send me the bag and the cap.’
