One of my all time favourite History Today sketches went something like this:
See an old, chipped saucer, propped awkardly against a brick in a dark, dank alleyway?
Is it a green saucer, from an institutional tea set?
Yes, and it has gone brown, where some tea has stained the white bits.
I have seen such an item amidst an assortment of discarded bric-a-brac.
That's your satellite dish, that is. That's what you use to watch sky television...
or something like that :lol:
Dunno why, but that one really floored me at time!
