Ouch

Professor Buzz, the world renowned expert on wasps, their habitat and the sound they make was passing a second hand record shop and on display in the window was an old vinyl record entitled ‘The World’s Wasps And The Sound They Make’. Intrigued, he went inside and enquired about the record. The record shop owner asked if he would like to hear a track off the record. "Most certainly" said the Professor. The shop owner put on track 1 and the Professor listened but shook his head. "I am sorry but I don’t recognise any of those wasps at all." So the shop owner played him tracks 2, and 3, and 4, and 5. All met with the same response - " I just don’t recognise any of these wasps." The record shop owner frowned, took the disc of the turntable and then exclaimed "Ah! That explains it! Why you didn’t recognise any of them. I was playing the bee side."
