A man is stranded in the desert dying of thirst. As he crawls along he spots something on the horizon. As he gets closer, he sees the objects are market stalls.

He goes to the first stall and pleads for water. The stall holder tells him he only sells jelly with broken biscuit in it.

He crawls to the next stall and and pleads for water put the stall holder tells him he only serves cold custard.

He crawls to the final stall and pleads for water. The stall holder tells him he only sells whipped cream.

The man cries in anguish and asks why the market only sells jelly, cold custard and whipped cream but no water.

One of the stall holder’s replies “Yes, it is a trifle bizarre, isn’t it?!”
