Nearly Caught

One day, Alf and three other dustmen were collecting rubbish along the street. Mrs. Frost, a good friend of Alf's wife, lived just down the street. Alf and his fellow dustmen soon began collecting rubbish in front of Mrs. Frost's house. Unbeknownst to Alf, his wife was visiting Mrs. Frost at that very moment. Alf was just getting out of the dustcart when he suddenly saw his wife leaving Mrs. Frost’s house. Surprised by his wife's sudden appearence, Alf immediately hid himself behind the dustcart. He didn’t know why his wife was at Mrs. Frost's house. There was not much time to think. Deciding to hide behind the dustcart was a poor decision because part of his body could still be seen, so his colleagues attempted to block his wife's view of the dustcart. At that moment, Alf's wife turned to talk to Mrs. Frost on the doorstep. She didn’t know her husband was nearby at all. The dustcart drove away just as Mrs. Blogs came towards it.
