New Suit Please

MAN Hello.

TAILOR 'Ello guys and gals, welcome to Jimmy's

MAN Guy actually. Is this Savile Row?

TAILOR As it 'appens, yes it is.

MAN Well I'd like to buy a new suit.

TAILOR Now then, now then, try this one on for size. Just go in the changing rooms, over there like.

A FEW MOMENTS LATER...

MAN It doesn't fit!

TAILOR Don't worry, Jim'll fix it.

MAN I don't think this is even a real suit.

TAILOR Oh but it is.

MAN It's not made out of wool, or even polyester!

TAILOR 'As it 'appens, your quite right. What this is, is, a legal suit.

MAN I don't want a legal suit, I'm man not a lawyer.

TAILOR It's a legal suit for an injunction.

MAN What kind of injunction.

TAILOR Slander. Still things were easier in my day, children were seen and not 'eard, well mostly seen, in their underwear. Anyway how does it feel?

MAN Well not very comfortable really, it feels like I've just walked in on someone molesting my daughter.

TAILOR I've still got it!
