Anglican/Methodist Joke

The Helpful Vicar

A newly married couple had been to view a house which they had decided to take. After they had left they remembered that they had not been able to find the WC in the house. They wrote to the vicar who had helped them get the place, to see if he could offer them any explanation of this state of affairs.

It seem that the Vicar had never heard of the term WC and thought they must mean the Wesleyan Chapel. So he wrote as follows:

Dear Sir,
I regret in reply to you letter that the nearest WC in the area is seven miles away from this house. This is rather unfortunate if you are in the habit of going regularly. However, some people take their lunch and make a day of it. Those who can spare the time, walk. Others go by train and arrive just in time. By the way it is made to seat 200 and the committee have now decided to have plush seats to ensure greater comfort. The last time my wife and I went was about ten years ago and she had to stand all the time, I myself never go at all. There are special facilities for the ladies presided over by the minister who goes to their assistance when required. All the children sit together and sing during the proceedings. Hoping this information will be of use to you.
I remain, yours truly,
The Vicar.
