"But the monumental masons made a mistake."In Yorkshire ..... sadly Arkwright's wife of 60yrs died. They never missed church on Sunday, as they were very religious. He instructed the undertakers to put on her headstone “Lord, she was thine”.
But the monumental masons made a mistake.
When Arkwright visited the grave, he was horrified to see the headstone read “Lord, she was thin”
He rang the masons and angrily told them
“Tha missed off the e."
"Sorry, they said, we’ll fix it immediately."
So next time Arkwright went to the grave, he saw the headstone, it read ....
“e Lord, she was thin."
Or, the masons made a monumental mistake

Yep my Uncle Dave was a 'Time Served' Monumental Mason."Monumental Mason" is actually a job description.
I've had enough; I'm self-isolating from everyone, including family, and moving into the garden.
