A young man walks into the room of a lady in an old peoples home. There is a bed and a gas fire. He has a gas fitters overalls on.

Fitter: Hello I hear you've been having a few problems with the fire.

Woman: Its been really cold.

[He begins working on fire]

Woman: Aren't you what's his name......let me think now........Billy, that's right. Your Billy my Grace's boy.

Fitter: Um no sorry, my names Clive.

Woman: Derek, that's it. Oh Derek its so nice to see you. How are my grand children? I haven't seen them in ages. I forget their names [looks off in distance] still it's good of you to visit.

[He looks up and smiles nervously]

Woman: You will bring them to see me soon won't you.

Fitter: I'm not Derek I'm afraid.

Woman: My cousin Alan?

Fitter: No!

Woman: My nephew Rees.

Fitter: Look I'm really sorry but I'm just here to fix the fire. I'm afraid as far as I know I'm no relation at all.

Woman: Oh dear......still, are you sure you're not a family member?

Fitter: Yes.

Woman: Fancy a shag then.

Priceless. I really have nothing bad to say about this. Well done you.

Ditto

Nice joke Roscoff but at the risk of sounding like a teacher there are a few typos in this should you be intending to send it out.

There names & your not a family member

Laughing out loud Roscoff is a teacher isn't he

Oops! How to win friends and influence people

What typos Blenk's? Please ignore edit date.

It wasn't to my taste but it's technically well done. Can't fault it either. :)

I liked this. I could really see the old girl going for the flirting big time. Laughing out loud

:O I think it's YOU in 50 years!

:O I think it's YOU in 50 years!

Laughing out loud
It's me now. Only I would probably do most of my family too.
What's good enough for Adam & Eve & all that. :D

I liked that, not to short not to long and quite a bit wrong.

Just one thing would a lady of a certain age say 'fancy a shag'??

Fitter: I'm not Derek I'm afraid.

Woman: My cousin Alan?

Fitter: No!

Woman: My nephew Rees.

Fitter: Look I'm really sorry but I'm just here to service the fire. I'm afraid as far as I know I'm no relation at all.

Woman: Oh dear......still, are you sure you're not a family member?

Fitter: Yes.

WOMAN LIFTS HER DRESS UP HIGH

Woman: Whilst you are here, my flue could do with some attention...it gets awfully damp.(WINKS)

THE END

Then again would a lady of a certain age say 'my flue could do with some attention...it gets awfully damp'

Hmmmm.....

Just a thought

That's a great little sketch roscoff, fine as it is. Nice one.
