Pimlico Plumbers, beware of swooning ladies
"to change the washer on one's radiator first turn off the water at the mains. Then drain the central heating system. Taking two wrenches first try (gently) to tighten the existing washer - this may negate any further work if the washer is simply loose. If this is not the case - swoon (wait for a man to be passing first) and then faint into a man's arms (hopefully he will be carrying a plumbers toolbox). Upon seeing your distress at the mess his grubby plumber's shovel hands have made of your pretty (and very see-thru) dress he will feel obliged to fix the radiator and the taps, and the dodgy toilet and to cook you dinner and fix the car.
