“The dog is fond of chocolate”
After having lived for twenty years in the same district, Albert Hall was forced to move to a
new neighborhood. He surprised his landlord by telling him that he was leaving because he could
not afford to buy any more chocolate.
It all began a year ago when Albert returned home one evening a found a large dog in front of
his gate. He was very fond of animals and as he happened to have a small piece of chocolate in
his pocket, he gave it to the dog. The next day, the dog was there again. Albert called his new
friend “Bingo”. He never found out the dog`s real name, nor who his owner was. However,
Bingo appeared regularly every afternoon and it was quite clear that he preferred chocolate to
bones. He soon grew dissatisfied with small pieces of chocolate and demanded a large bar a day.
If at any time Albert neglected his duty, Bingo got very angry and refused to let him open the
gate. He spent such a large part of his weekly money to keep Bingo supplied with chocolate that
in the end he had to move somewhere else.
