{Dan has been boasting about some achievement.}
DAN: Anyone got a number for The Guinness Book of Records?
JANE: Infinity?

(BOZ HAS NICKED A LOAD OF NHS STUFF FROM THE RECYCLING CENTRE AND IS TAKING IT OUT OF A BINLINER, ONE ITEM AT A TIME AND SHOWING IT TO GILLY. THERE'S A REPLACEMENT HIP, A PACEMAKER, FALSE TEETH ETC.)
GILLY:
