Homeowner finally installs electricity at his remote country cottage - Telegraph

Reminds me of a family that lived on Lonsdale St - Two brothers and a Sister.I think the men worked on the Railway -One of them looked like Freddie Frinton and put all his money in the Springhill Bandits.

Anyway a Hoover salesman called at their house to demonstrate the latest model.He tipped a bag of dust on the floor and was most suprised when he was handed a brush and shovel and told to ****** off because they had no Electric.
