The village Bench Working Party, a group of retirees freely giving their time and skills. These men meet weekly to do some good for the village. And great good they do too.

First they erected benches around the village and at key vantage points too. Now they do anything the village needs that they can achieve. Great camaraderie, great work, great charity. Yes, all for free!

Today they were in the churchyard, straightening and tidying gravestones.

But some snitch reported them to the police, for Covid crimes.

WHAT?

“Did that person think they were grave robbing?” wondered the bewildered Vicar.

    So, you're sure they weren't then?

    I think that most of them are a bit close to them to want to rob them, Jamie!

    No need to be sorry... it was just a joke (which I’d better not let any of the Bench Working Party see, being not so very far behind them all myself, agewise that is 🥴) It’s for me to be sorry for my warped sense of humour!

    Hehe! You’re right Gilbert. The whole village is up in arms. If anyone discovers who the snitch was, then things should get really fun! 😁 Meanwhile, the old boy’s plan to graverob again next Wednesday... if they get parole!
