A stroke of luck : a golden fish ! By Thibault O. 4th form Cotton

Three days ago, Thibault O. fished a golden fish in the lake "La Tpurbière" in Lardy.

It took him three hours and forty seven minutes to take it out of the water with his old fishing rod. The fish weighed fourteen kilos and measured three meters.

Thilbault became the richest man in the world. However the money doesn't interest him, that is why he has decided to give nine million euros to a beggar. This represented half of his fortune.
