Lonely Island

I overhear this when I work above a bar on the seafront. On a clear day, you can see the island of Fuerteventura from Lanzarote.

A customer is sitting on a barstool having a midday drink.

Customer: “What’s that island I can see out there?”

Barman: “That’s Fuerteventura.”

Customer: *Sips his beer* “It wasn’t there last year, was it?”
