It must have been about two in the morn-
ing when I returned home. I tried to
wake up my wife by ringing the door-bell,
but she was fast asleep, so I got a ladder
from the shed in the garden, put it against
the wall, and began climbing towards the
bedroom window. I was almost there
when a sarcastic voice below said,' I don't
think the windows need cleaning at this
time of the night.' I looked down and
nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a
policeman. I immediately regretted an-
swering in the way I did, but I said,'I
enjoy cleaning windows at night.'
'So do I,'answered the policeman in
the same tone. 'Excuse my interrupting
you. I hate to interrupt a man when he's busy working, but would you mind
coming with me to the station ?'
'Well, I'd prefer to stay here,' I said. 'You see, I've forgotten my key.'
'Your what ?' he called.
'My key,' I shouted.'
Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as
the policeman had started to climb towards me.
