<p>There was a painter named Wayne who was very interested in making a penny where he could, so he often thinned down his paint to make it go a wee bit further. <br /><br />As it happened, he got away with this for some time, but eventually the Baptist Church decided to do a big restoration job on the outside of one of their biggest buildings. <br /><br />Wayne put in a bid, and, because his price was so low, he got the job. So he set about erecting the scaffolding and setting up the planks, and buying the paint and, yes, I am sorry to say, thinning it down with turpentine. <br /><br />Well, Wayne was up on the scaffolding, painting away, the job nearly completed, when suddenly there was a horrendous clap of thunder, the sky opened, and the rain poured down washing the thinned paint from all over the church and knocking Wayne clear off the scaffold to land on the lawn among the gravestones, surrounded by telltale puddles of the thinned and useless paint. <br /><br />Wayne was no fool. He knew this was a judgment from the Almighty, so he got down on his knees and cried:<br /><br />"Oh, God, forgive me; what should I do?" And from the thunder, a mighty voice spoke?....<br /><br />(you're going to love this).........<br /><br /><br />"Repaint! Repaint! And thin no more!" <img src="http://www.modelrailroadforums.com/forum/images/misc/progress.gif" border="0" width="16" height="16" /></p><p> </p><p>(Luc running away quickly tru the back door hehehehehehe)</p>
