Beer In a Bucket

Beer in a Bucket The well is almost dry he could hear the bucket scraping at the bottom and the bucket was only half full when he brought it up, global warming was true, but he was not sure whether it was caused by man or by a natural The shift in the weather pattern, having read the once there were palm trees in Greenland? Once the well was full of cold, clear water and he used to lower a bucket full of bottled beer down it and when he hoisted it up the beer was cold; of course, he could put the beer in the fridge, but it didn`t have the sangfroid, about it as everybody had a fridge. He looked at his watch they were going out to eat she said, not that he wanted to go out, people went on his nerves, the good thing was the served cold beer, almost as cold as the beer in the well.
