A painter and decorator gets the job of painting the inside of his local church and quotes a price for two coats of emulsion.
On day one he thinks that no-one would notice if he mixed the paint 50-50 with water so that he could use half the paint and make more profit.
On day two he is putting a bucket of water into his bucket of paint and mixing it when suddenly the priest emerges for the confessional and challenges the painter, accusing of being the most despicable cheat and of stealing from the church.
The painter says, “Yes OK you’ve caught me, what do you want me to do?”
The Priest says;

“Repaint, Repaint, and thin no more!”
