Pay Up Or Else
A little old lady was walking down the street dragging two large plastic rubbish bags behind her. One of the bags was ripped and every once in a while a £20 note fell out onto the pavement.
Noticing this, a policeman stopped her, and said, "Madam, there are £20 notes falling out of that bag."
"Oh, really? Darn it!" said the little old lady. "I'd better go back and see if I can find them. Thanks for telling me officer."
"Well, now, not so fast," said the cop.“Where did you get all that money? You didn't steal it, did you?"
"Oh, no, no", said the old lady. "You see, my back garden is right next to a Golf course.
A lot of Golfers come and pee through a knot hole in my fence, right into my flower Garden. It used to really tick me off. Kills the flowers, you know. Then I thought, 'why not make the best of it?
So, now, I stand quietly behind the fence by the knot hole, with my hedge clippers.
Every time some guy sticks his thing through my fence, I surprise him, grab hold of it and say, "O.K., mate! Give me £20, or off it comes."
"Well, that seems only fair," said the cop, laughing. "OK. Good luck ! Oh, by the way, what's in the other bag?"
"Not everybody pays."
