Shortcut through the churchyard by member @SirExton
Paddy and Mick are in the pub and having a great session on Guinness.
As the Landlord calls last orders, Mick says, ‘I have had enough, and I am heading home through this stormy night!’
As Mick walks through the village, he thinks I will take a shortcut home, through the churchyard.
He walks through the churchyard, and as it is pitch black stormy night, he falls in a freshly dug grave.
Mick is at the bottom of the grave, trying to claw his way up the six-foot deep grave, but only being 4 foot 8 tall, he cannot get a grip and keeps sliding back down to the bottom. Quite inebriated and exhausted, he falls asleep at the bottom of the grave.
The Land Lord of the Pub finally throws Paddy out at the closing time. Paddy thinks to himself, ‘it’s a terrible stormy night ta bi sure, I will take a shortcut through the churchyard.’
As Paddy enters the churchyard, he can hear moaning, and as he walks further, he hears a faint voice, ‘O, I am cold.’
As he walks further into the pitch-black graveyard, there is a flash of lightning; the voice gets stronger, ‘O I am cold, O I am cold.’
Paddy walks near the freshly dug grave and sees all the dirt piled up, and the voice from the other side of the pile of dirt and the open-top grave says for the third time, ‘O I am cold, I am cold!’
Paddy calls out to the voice in the night’, Bi Jasus, ya will be mate, Ya have kicked al tha dirt of ya, so ya have!’
