    Will he or won't he?

    Fall?

    The guy across the road is painting the upstairs window surrounds... by hanging out of the window...

    Now he's standing on the window sill...

    Who'll give me odds on this?

    William Hill?

        Once saw a roofer plummet past our front window accompanied by a scream and finishing with a sickening thud. Lucky sod landed side on and didn't break anything.
