An old foreign friend who was to stay with me telephoned from the airport to tell me that he had arrived. I was still at the office at the time, but I had made arrangements for his coming. After explaining where my new house was, I told him that I had left the key under the door mat. As I was likely to be home rather late, I advised him to go to the kitchen and help himself to food and drink.
Two hours later my friend telephoned me from my house. At the moment, he said he was listening to some of my records after having just had a truly wonderful meal. He had found a pan on the gas stove and fried two eggs and had helped himself to some cold chicken from the fridge too. Now, he said he was drinking a glass of orange juice and he hoped I would join him. When I asked him if he had entered the house without difficulty, he answered that he had not been able to find the key under the doormat, but fortunately the living-room window just by the apple tree had been left open and he had climbed in. I listened to all this in surprise. There is no apple tree in front of my living-room, but there is one in front of my neighbor's.
