"Well we were out of meat, so I had to use Blackie. That is what you just ate."

I am the Truant Officer for area and we have noticed that your son, Brian is not at school again. May I be able to have a word, please."
"Of course you can. Can you please wait there and I will come down and let you in."
"Certainly madam. Thank you very much." With that Lilian went back into the bedroom and bent down under the bed, retrieving the bed pan, which was still to be emptied. She went back to the window, checked that the man was not looking and emptied the contents over him. With and exclamation he looked up, covered in urine, only to told by Lilian, "There you go! Now clear off, before I tip some more over you." With that he left.
