Mistaken Identity

Our Church has large properties, and various tenants. Weigh Less is one. This is run by two elderly women -- friendly old souls. Our Senior Youth wanted to play cricket, and needed the cricket ball from the Church hall. Two of them went to look for it -- muscular young men -- one of them holding a cricket stump. As anyone will know, a cricket stump looks something like a dangerous weapon. Being young, our youth dispensed with formalities, burst through the door, and said to one of the Weigh Less women, “Where’s the ball?” She came hurrying through to the vestry where I was, clearly having taken fright. When I went to have a look, I could assure her that these young men were two of our finest and best! OBSERVATION: People are a little jumpy about security here, but with good reason. We are soon to install steel gates (besides the steel perimeter gates we already have).
