Question 10: Do you find this story funny? What are the humorous
elements in it?
Answer: This is a really funny story but at the same time it can be
related to many people’s real life. To start with the language itself is
humorous while depicting as mundane an activity as packing. Discovery of
toothbrush inside a boot is funny. George stepping on butter is funny incident.
The list can go on and on, like Harris sitting on butter, packing of jam over
tomato, packing of heavier thing over lighter things. The disturbance by the
dog brings its own amount of fun in the story. Even in the end their argument
about exact wakeup time is also full of humour
