Lovers Giggling In Churchyard Vex Vicar
Lovers giggling in his churchyard wake a > Paddington, London, vicar and his wife most fine nights. So the vicar, the Rev. Francis Heydon, of Holy Trinity Church, accompanied by Jock, his barking Scots terrier, and stick in hand, goes out and orders them away. ,“I’m ready to use my fists if necessary, but they don’t stay to argue,” he told the Daily Mirror. “Their behaviour is an offence against God and man. “Summer’s coming, and the Ministry of Works is still dealing with my application for a permit to replace churchyard railings, taken down at the beginning of the war. “So it looks as if my wife and I will continue to be wakened by these couples, who use shocking language. “I’m not narrow-minded, but this is degrading. I’m going to stamp it out.”
