Yorkshire joke...

Bloke's wife passes away, and, whilst making the necessary arrangements, he sees the stonemason about the headstone.

Bloke can't think of what wording would be appropriate, so the stonemason advises him to think of what his wife would have liked, what would say most about her, and to come back in a couple of days' time.

Bloke thinks about it and, his wife havig been deeply religious, chooses, "She Was Thine". Stonemason readily agrees and says come back in a week when it'll be ready.

Next week at the stonemason's, the bloke is horrified to see that the headstone reads "She Was Thin". He stomps off and tells the stonemason he's missed off the "e". Stonemason is distraught and tells the bloke he'll put it right and on the best quality stone for no extra charge and he'll work all night so it'll be ready in the morning.

Next morning, the stonemason proudly shows the bloke his best ever carving. It now reads "Eee, She Was Thin".
