A lorry driver breaks down on the M6 with a cargo of live monkeys onboard, bound for Chester Zoo. They need to be delivered by 9:00 am and the driverfears he will get the sack if they don’t get there on time. He decides totry and thumb a lift for his monkeys and eventually an Irish lorry driverpulls over.
"Where they going?" asks the Irish chap.
"Do us a favour mate and take these to Chester Zoo for me" says the driver, "and here’s a hundred quid for your troubles."
"Happy days, " says the Irish fella, loads the monkeys onto his truck andgets on his way.
The lorry driver goes about trying to fix his truck and is there for agood few hours when he notices the Irish fella coming back down the motorway, still with all the chimps on board. Panicking, he flags him down again.
"What are you playing at, " he fumes, "I told you to take them to Chester Zoo !"
"I did, " says the Irish fella, "but there is still fifty quid leftso now we’re going to Alton Towers."
