A scandal in the village. The throbbing metropolis of St Pierre sur Erve is proud of its classification as a Petite Cité de Carcatère, and as such augments its attractions for tourists with sundry artworks dotted around the village and its surroundings. One has been vandalised.
The statue entitled "Temps Libre" (free time) is owned by the village, it wasn't cheap either, and is of a man walking nonchalantly while whistling. He is now quite unhappy.
The perpetrator is known, and the village comité des fêtes met recently to Decide What Must Be Done. After much debate a solution was found that satisfied everyone, mostly, was suitably geared towards the challenges faced by the individual concerned, and includes, amongst other things, that he be asked to do works of general benefit in the village. Maybe it will work.

It would have been appropriate to have him stand in for the statue.
Whistling La Marseillaise.
I hope he is equal to the task expected of him (her)?
What is wrong with people these days. Why do they spoil anything joyful!
