Small Rotating Device

"So this is the Small Rotating Device, on the window ledge, is it? Remarkable. I have seen many Small Rotating Devices in my life. After all, I am - as you well know - the Professor of Small Rotating Devices at Evesham University. But, never, never, in all my long - and dare I say it, distinguished - career have I ever seen such a fascinating Small Rotating Device. You must be so proud. I would love to have it for my collection of Small Rotating Devices. However, judging from the expression on your face whatever amount of money I offer would only be an insult."

"Not necessarily."

"Oh?"

"Yes."

"Okay, then. I'll give you 5p for this wonderful Small Rotating Device."

"Done!"

"Thank you. Of course, it is far more than I would normally pay for a Small Rotating Device, but for a piece such as this… well, the sky is the limit."

"Would you like a bag to put it in?"

"Yes, please."

"There you are."

"Thank you. One more thing?"

"Yes?"

"I don't suppose there is any chance of a shag, is there?"

"Perhaps…."

"Oh, please?"

"Oh, go on then."

"Thank you."

"Oh, I see. So, do you want it here, now, then?"

"Er… well. As you see…."

"Ah. In that case, I'll fetch my trowel."

"Excellent. But… please…."

"What?"

"Please, hurry or I may have to release the badger."
