The message

Some dude ranchers were being 'taught' the art of tracking by an
American
Indian and went out with him day after day, learning how to seek
the signs
of different animals passing, what wild stuff was good to eat etc.
and then
one day he said "today, we go back early. BIG rains come 2pm". The
tourists were terribly impressed, talking animatedly amongst
themselves
about the wisdom and ancient knowledge of these people and so forth.
Eventually a tourist said to him "please, tell us, how do you
know these
things? Where do you get such wisdom and insight". "Weather
forecast on
radio".

Hikers think it feels a bit like lunchtime and see an aged rustic
leaning on a gate, so they ask him the time.

Rustic goes to the hinged post, gets down on his knees and peers under
the gate.

Gets up - "'Alf parst twelve it is, tergither." (he was a Suffolk
Rustic)

"Good Lord! Tell me how you do that!"

"Ah well, dew Oi luke undr th' bottom baaaar of this geart, 'bor, Oi dew
see the church clock jist under the branches of that oak oover thaar."

In the Mexican version he raises part of his donkey's anatomy to see
the clock.

Seems unlikely that the donkey would always stand in that spot?

It may to you.

I suppose it depends on how often the Mexican wanted to know the time...
