Nearly finished. If you could just turn the heating on for a minute to make sure there are no leaks. So, like I was saying, what a bloody shower.
I know! Moats, tennis courts, flat screen televisions!
If it was one of us it would be a different story. It's fraud isn't it? Nothing else. Have you got a cloth in case there is a leak?
Scatter cushions, flipping, flipping nerve more like.
That's it - all done.
How much do I owe you?
Forty five quid if you want a receipt?
I was going to pay cash.
Great! Thirty quid and no receipt.
There you go.
Lovely - so I'll be back to clean out the radiators in a few weeks. See you then.
Criminal to let this go without comment; a good point well made...
Uninterestingly, Peter Viggers was my MP when I was a teenager, but I managed to escape Gosport. The man has not aged in three decades.....

Well your plumber will never get far in business or politics. He should've taken the cash without giving a rebate.

She, David, she... is quite a good plumber but hopeless at maths - 15% of 45 is not 30. I think she was feeling a bit guilty for spilling very dirty water over the carpet.
What has Peter Viggers being doing with those ducks?
