(Pete 'n' Dud, plus Harold Pinter:

Well, that morning, while I was having my mid-morning cup of tea in a neighbouring cafe, the
shovel standing by my chair, an old lady approached me and asked me if I would give her a hand
with her iron mangle. Her brother-in-law, she said, had left it for her, but he'd left it in the wrong room,
he'd left it in the front room. Well, naturally, she wanted it in the back room. It was a present he'd
given her, you see, a mangle, to iron out the washing. But he'd left it in the wrong room, he'd left it in
the front room, well that was a silly place to leave it, it couldn't stay there. So I took time off to give
her a hand. She only lived up the road. Well, the only trouble was when I got there I couldn't move
this mangle. It must have weighed about half a ton. How this brother-in-law got it up there in the first
place I can't even begin to envisage. So there I was, doing a bit of shoulders on with the mangle,
risking a rupture, and this old lady just standing there, waving me on, not even lifting a little finger to
give me a helping hand. So after a few minutes I said to her, now look here, why don't you stuff this
iron mangle up your arse? Anyway, I said, they're out of date, you want to get a spin drier. I had a
good mind to give her a workover there and then, but as I was feeling jubilant with the snow-clearing I
just gave her a short-arm jab to the belly and jumped on a bus outside.
