'He's the cowboy that works for Norflip and Chance Driving School. You only have to ring and ask his full name. They're right about no flippin' chance of ever passing your licence unless you've got a thousand quid in readies for a back hander!'

'Take that down, Cath,' said Paul, 'We'll check out your story, Gilbert, you don't mind me calling you Gilbert, do you? And if there's any truth in it, we'll pay you a handsome remuneration.'

looking at Gilby in an entirely different way. 'I'll need to go into this in some depth, Mr Supermarket,' she said, fluttering her eyes under her thick glasses, giving her the look of a nervous googly eyed goldfish. 'How about dinner at mine tonight at 8?'

"Yes definitely. But first go round to Norfolk and

Chance...."

"I beg your...what is the company? I thought you were swearing"

said Paul.

Gilby coughed , and with a look of disdain, went on ."Yes Barney Godbewithin he's your man.

Offered me the chance of a fake driving licence for 700 quid."

"Oh you've been through so much Gilbert. I am off to confront Goodbyewomen immediately" said Cath enthusiastically.

and with a sympathetic pat to his shoulder and a look that was meant to be understanding but came across as cross-eyed and possibly pie-eyed, she briskly shot off in the car. Unfortunately, she forgot all about Paul who was left behind waving frantically and shouting ...

crossing his face whilst simultaneously looking down his nose. This was suggestive to any onlooker that he may have some kind of blockage in the bowel department.

'Never touch the stuff, got a beer mate?' asked Paul.

'Destructable may have left some, he's into that kind of working class thing, one moment I'll take a look.'

Gilby left the room, followed closely by Muffle, giving Paul the chance to ...

Rosetta Fromm, the roving Daily Blabber reporter, was telling me all about it. Imagine the reaction when Cath finds out old Supermarket was dating her arch enemy and rival! Could be a story in it, do you think?'

"A good few k if you will. One can't count one's

chickens without money you know."

"So....tell me....how about you go back to Getsomewomen and get him on tape saying all this. Then the police will swoop."

"Oh grand idea great stuff."

Gilby was alarmed by the doorbell ringing.

"Am Darren moit, come to repair your leaks n whatnot. A modest fee to recompense..."

Shaken not stirred, Gilby went quickly to the door.

"You were out codger you was..when I called before..driving lesson or sumfing.", said Darren in a self effacing manner.

cuppa going, moit? Dry as a wooden dog, me!'

Gilbert rolled his eyes, 'Anybody would think I was the serving wench! Beers, cups of tea! Can I get you anything else while I'm at it? A slice of sponge? Some cucumber sandwiches? Fry you a chop maybe!!'

Darren ignored the sarcasm. 'What you want is a maid, moit. Me niece Burfa is looking for a job, good girl, hard worker 'n all.'

'Burpa? What kind of a name is that?'

'No moit, Burfa, B.E.R.T.Haitch.A. Shall oi giver a tinkle?'

As he said that, in the corner of the room Paul tried to open a can of deep frozen lager...cheap Dutch stuff judging by the label which said De Craap , made in Rotterdam.

Paul wondered why and how the cans had got a post it note inscribed with V  Dessicate 2014.

Beer was beer though.

As the can flip broke , a spurt of steaming ice shot out, followed by a volcanic eruption of icy lager, which hit every wall in the once so proud , beautiful room.

Paul sucked 50 per cent of the icy mess off the table using a nearby straw.

"Oi moit, super entertoinment.

Got any more beer pal?", asked Darren, in a.....

chirpy kind of way.

'I'm not employing you to sit round drinking beer, go and fix my plumbing! If you do a good job I'll consider hiring your niece, but you need to prove she doesn't come from a long line of layabouts! Hop it!'

Darren tugged his forelock with a cheery grin, picked up his toolbag and headed for the bathroom. Resounding clangs and bangs, rattles and gurgles could soon be heard. Gilby relaxed, he hated to think his hard-earned money was being wasted. All those years of greasing up to Uncle had been a tough grind.

Turning his attention back to Paul and trying to make himself heard above the racket coming from upstairs, he said ...

"And now. Are you going to actually do something about Mr Goodforwomen ? I see that Kat went to do her bit but all you do is sit here flooding my house with frozen beer. The door is that way."

"We will investi..."

Cath's car drove in.Out she got , whooping with joy.

"Gilby!!Police arrested Mr Gonewoman. They believe you and he is now in custody."

"What time is dinner at yours?" asked Gilby.

"I shall collect you at 8 o'clock. Prawn souffle followed by beef bourgignon rounded off with cheese and biscuits polished off with a dessert...me !!"

Overjoyed at getting some sugar at last, Gilby kissed her, his.....

luck seemed to be finally perking up. Visit from Eleanor, arrest of Goodfornothing, plumbing in working order again, a housemaid on the horizon and now a date with a lady who genuinely seemed to want to please him. He allowed himself a smirk of satisfaction.

'Well, what did you find, man??'

Gilby looked at her in admiration. He loved an assertive woman. Those horn rimmed glasses! Those brogues! He dragged his eyes off her reluctantly and tried to concentrate on what Darren was saying.

 

'Well it's like this 'ere, moit, yer've got a cross threaded crox nut on yer ballcock and some idjit 'as realigned the closet flange! The baffle's collapsed in the 'eader tank and there's a stress fracture in the pressure reducing valve. It could all blow any minute! To put it in a nutshell, as we say in the trade, yer've got a bit of a problem, moit, and 'ave you got yer chequebook 'andy?
