Fred's wife sends Fred a letter, which arrives at the prison where Fred is serving a sentence for stealing gold and jewellery.

The gold and jewellery was never recovered.

In the course of the letter, Fred's wife writes that because money is a bit scarce, she is thinking of digging up the rear garden, to plant some vegetables.

Only problem is that the garden is big and it will take ages to dig.

Fred immediately writes a reply to his wife's letter.

Just one sentence, "Absolutely, under no circumstances, are you to touch the rear garden."

A day or two later, Fred recieves a reply from his wife. "I don't know how you did it, but those big brutes from the Special Branch, came out yesterday and dug the whole of the rear garden. You're a love."
