George was an old man of eighty-eight living in Sussex. Every year his son Mark used to dig his garden over so he could grow his prized vegetables. Mark was a bad boy and got himself sent to prison.
George wrote to Mark in prison asking who was going to dig his garden for him so he could plant his vegetables.
Mark wrote back saying, 'Whatever you do, don't dig the garden up, that's where the bodies are hidden'.
At six o'clock the next morning loads of police turned up and turned his garden over. Finding nothing they apologised to the old man and left leaving the garden nice and tidy.
The next day George received a letter from Mark saying, 'It was the best he could do considering the circumstances'.
