Confession...
The elderly Frenchman is in his local church’s confessional. “Forgive me Father, for I have sinned,” he says. “During World War II, a beautiful woman knocked on my door and asked me to hide her from the enemy. I put her in the attic.”
“No need to ask forgiveness for that, my son,” says the priest. “It was a wonderful thing to do.”
“Yeah,” says the man, “But she started offering me sexual favours in return and I went along with it.”
“People in wartime situations do funny things. If you are truly sorry for your actions, you are forgiven.”
“That’s a great load of my mind,” says the pensioner. “May I ask you a question?”
“Of course.”
“She’s getting on a bit now. Should I tell her the war is over?”
