Not a chance. Only the top end have indoor bogs, never mind electricity.

Scawsby Steve: " We'er dead posh from we're arm from"

Visitor: "Eton"?

Scawsby Steve: " Not today, but I 'ad a jam sandwich yesterday."

Strange people in Belton, we use our bogs for the bottom end.

Scawsby Steve: Me cats not very well.

Vet: Sorry to hear that. Is it a tom?

Scawsby Steve: No, Ive brought him wi me.
