A BOLT OF LIGHTENING
She never came in thru the bathroom window 'round here, but he went in through the bedroom one - the wrong one though. The bloke Gossip's on about this week is the bearded board powerman of the electrical type, who stayed out late one night doing the circuit of night spots with his visiting high energy brother. Our man got his wires crossed about where he lived (good cheer blacked out parts of the old head computer by the sounds of it), found himself cut off from entering the neighbour's 'ohm in the normal way so tried to short circuit the system and go through the window. What happened next was he landed head first on the floor of the bedroom waking the neighbours and putting out his lights. Next the cheeky electroneer asked for a cup of coffee from the couple who, through no fault of their own, found themselves with an unwanted 2am good neighbour!
