It ‘s happened 20 years ago. An Englishman who was in France on a short visit wanted to go back to London. He had only enough money to pay for a ticket. As he knew the trip to take only two days, he decided that he could live without eating those two days. So he bought a ticket and got on the ship. When dinner-time came, he was very hungry, but he said he was not. In the evening he was even hungrier but he did not go to have supper and the waiter thought him to be seasick. The next morning the Englishman felt bad. “I will eat”, he thought to himself, “even if they throw me into the sea”. So when dinner time came, he went to the dining-room and ate everything that was on the table before him. When dinner was over, he quickly got up and went to his cabin. In the evening when the ship was not far from London, he ate his supper and said to the waiter, “Bring me the bill for my meals”. But the waiter asked: “What bill?”. “For the dinner and supper I ate.” “But you paid for your meals when you bought the ticket,” answered the waiter.
