Albert visits and unwell friend.
Today Albert heard that one of his good friends was not very well, so he felt obliged to pay him a visit, so he called a taxi to come and take him. Albert thought it best to wait outside ready for the taxi, so not to waste any time. 10 minutes later and the taxi was there.
As the taxi pulled up, he didn't see Albert standing there waiting, and almost ran him over. Albert had to dive into the gutter in the road to avoid the collision. This didn't bode well for Albert either, as on the other side of the curb was a drain cover. Albert managed to stretch his arms out wide enough to stop himself falling down into the sewer.
The taxi driver waited for 15 minutes, but as he could see Albert, he drove off. Albert was stuck and needed to get out of the drain cover. As the taxi pulled off, there was a bit of material hanging off the back. As it passed him, Albert grabbed it. It set him free, now all Albert had to hope for was that the taxi was going to pass his friends house.
Again lady luck shined down for Albert, and the taxi stopped in traffic right outside his friends house. Monty was ever so pleased to see Albert had made the effort to come and see him. Albert spent the day there looking after him, feeding him and playing fetch. Before it got dark Albert said his goodbyes and began walking home, as he couldn't risk another taxi ride.
