beached boys
Two priests on their way to a beach resort vacation decided they wouldn't wear anything that would identify them as clergy. On arrival they found a shop that specialized in brightly colored shirts, shorts, and all the other bits they needed to help them forget their cold and damp northern church for a little while.
The next morning they went to the beach, dressed in their 'tourist' garb and were sitting on deck chairs, enjoying a drink, the sunshine and the scenery when a beautiful blonde woman wearing a tiny bikini came walking straight towards them. They couldn't help but stare and when she passed them, she smiled and said, "Good morning, Father" - "Good morning, Father," nodding and addressing each of them individually, then passed on by.
They were both stunned. How in the world did she recognize them as priests?
The next day they went back to the shop, bought even more outrageous outfits and again settled on the beach in their chairs to enjoy the sunshine, etc.
After a while, the same gorgeous blonde, wearing a string bikini this time, came walking toward them again.
Again, she approached them and greeted them individually: "Good morning, Father," "Good morning Father," and started to walk away.
One of the priests couldn't stand it and said. "Just a minute, young lady. Yes, we are priests, and proud of it, but I have to know, how in the world did you know?"
"Oh, Father, it's me Sister Angela!"

Unlike much art, your watercolours have a lovely way of depicting events in motion rather than a static scene. Lovely.
ReplyDeleteHigh praise, Andrew. Many thanks.
DeleteThe physiognomy of the girl reminds me of someone. ... By a hair the sentence had ended [reminds me of someone], Sister Susan :)

DeleteHi Susan
ReplyDeleteGreat watercolour in motion with some really cute guys. Is that a sea horse or a dragon toy they have in-tow. ?
Thanks, Lindsay. It's a sea dragon baby. :)
