Poisson d'Avril

At the foot of the Pyrenees, beside a river, two men settle for fishing. Something bites but at the end of the line there is nothing but a fake fish on which we can read "April Fish (April Fool) "... Then they picnic and cook sausages on charcoal. One of them opens a piece of bread to put inside some grilled black pudding, but at the second bite the sausage's turned into a piece of black pipe!
