Grocer: (Looking up) MORNING, MR BROWN.

Man: MORNING, TOM. NEWS OF THE WORLD, PLEASE.

Grocer: THEY’RE ON STRIKE, I’M AFRAID.

Man: OH, THE SUNDAY SPORT, THEN.

Grocer: (Smiling) SOLD OUT.

Man: OH DEAR, WHAT ELSE HAVE YOU GOT THEN?

Grocer: (Reaching behind him) HAVE YOU TRIED THE NEW ONE?

Man: NO, IS IT ANY GOOD?

Grocer: (Handing him a toilet roll) YES. I USE IT MYSELF.

Man: (Taking it and holding it up to the light). WELL, I’LL GIVE IT A TRY. (He pays the grocer). CHEERS. (He turns and walks out of the shop).

Grocer: (Ringing up on the till) BYE, SEE YOU NEXT WEEK.
