Quick, call the police!
One minute my service book was on the pew next to me, then, while singing a hymn it disappeared! As an immediate solution I sidled up to my neighbour and shared his book. In the long term (as in while leaving) I discovered the culprits.
Allow me to bore you silly and set the scene.
We were in a pew in front a 5 people (they were in the pew behind - makes sense) these people clearly had dishonest hearts given that the culprit must have been behind me. A rather innocent looking older couple were sitting furthest away from me, but I suspect their innocence was entirely falsified due to the fact that while holding a service book each they also had one inbetween them on the seat. As they would have been unable to reach the original item (a service book in case you'd forgotten) they must have had an accomplice, this particular person leaned over the pew, seized the book and handed it along the line so it could be (badly) hidden on the seat.
I'm so disappointed at what the church is coming to today.
