- Once upon a time there was a ship coming from America and on it was an old woman selling oranges - "two a 1d". A whale followed the ship and the sailors threw out the oranges & stall but it still followed on. Then they threw out the old lady and some time later the whale was caught and when it was opened the woman was inside calling: - Oranges 2 a 1d.
