   A Cousin Jack, with a load aboard, ambled aimlessly into an open cut 30ft deep in Westralia the other day. A doctor and ambulance were telephoned for, but their services were not required, as the Cornishman was discovered at the bottom 10 minutes later, fast asleep, with his head pillowed on his boots. ‘Drunk's luck.’
