George & Judith's One Way Ticket

A COUPLE OF OAP'S (GEORGE & JUDITH) ARE COMING OUT OF A SHOP. A TRAFFIC WARDEN IS WRITING OUT A PARKING TICKET.

GEORGE:
Hey, come on lad, how about giving a senior a break, eh?

THE TRAFFIC WARDEN IGNORES GEORGE.

GEORGE:
Ah, you're a rotter!

THE TRAFFIC WARDEN TURNS AND GLARES AT GEORGE THEN BEGINS WRITING OUT ANOTHER TICKET.

GEORGE:
What! Is one not enough? Are you getting a kick out of this?

THE TRAFFIC WARDEN FINISHES WRITING THE 2ND TICKET AND PUTS IT ON THE WINDSCREEN.

JUDITH:
What an arsehole!

THE TRAFFIC WARDEN GLARES AT JUDITH BEFORE WRITING OUT ANOTHER TICKET.

GEORGE:
(To Judith - shaking his head)
You see love; cars are nothing but trouble.

PAN BACK TO REVEAL JUDITH & GEORGE STANDING AT A BUS STOP, THE BUS PULLS UP AND GEORGE AND JUDITH GET ON.

:D Nice.

Laughing out loud

ha ha. I'm going to try this myself.

Excelent very neat and a nice punch.

Mindyou could George be a bit funnier in his lines?

Otherwise top stuff.

Sorry that I didn't completely understand but is the joke that they're moaning, yet it's not their car?

How about they're sadistic old gits who wind the traffic warden up and even point out other trafiic violations the car is breaking ("I suppose you're going to give another ticket because the back wheels are out of the parking bay. And the tax disc has expired?") Until the windscreen is littered with tickets and then the real owner of the vehicle arrives (maybe someone they know or dislike) and they chuckle as they make their way to the bus stop?

Thanks all! feedback appreciated as always. I too am going to try this Mikey.

and people often ask what the retired do with all their spare time eh? Laughing out loud

Yea, the joke is they're moaning even though it's not their car.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Laughing out loud I liked this skit a lot! Very funny. I thought it was clear.

Thanks Curt. Glad you like it.

Another goodie - I liked Dolly's suggestion too - they could rile the Traffic Warden in lots of ways then when he gives them several tickets they run off in glee like a couple of kids.
