Noticing this, a policeman stopped her, and said, "Madam, there are Pound 20 notes falling out of that bag." "Oh, really? Damn it!" said the little old lady. "I'd better go back and see if I can find them. Thanks for telling me constable." "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 yard 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 annoy me - kills the flowers, you know. Then I thought, 'why not make the best of it?' So, now, I stand behind the fence by the knot hole, real quiet, with my hedge clippers. Every time some guy sticks his thing through my fence, I surprise him, grab hold of it and say, 'OK, buddy! Give me Pound 20, or off it comes!' "Well, that seems only fair," said the cop, laughing.
