The Italian Detective was standing near the Martello Tower<\/p>\n
A crime had been committed as graffiti had appeared on the whitewash<\/p>\n
A hunt was on for the people who had committed this terrible crime<\/p>\n
But little success had been achieved by the local police forces<\/p>\n
So Inspector Giuseppe Joseph was asked to investigate the vandalism<\/p>\n
This was a masterstroke as he soon deduced that the artists<\/p>\n
Had never attended art school as they were all self taught<\/p>\n
He laid a cunning trap between the eighth and ninth holes<\/p>\n
And the miscreants were soon caught with spray cans in their hands<\/p>\n
But they were not arrested and placed in the police vans<\/p>\n
As Inspector Joseph thought it quicker and more expedient<\/p>\n
To throw them from the crumbling cliffs into the sea below<\/p>\n
