:A wizened old Cockney road mender was busy working in a hole near a set of traffic lights in the East End of London. He heard a hissing sound and looked up out of his hole to see a brand new Rolls Royce pulled up at the red light. He hopped up out of his hole and tapped on the driver's window. The window slid down to reveal the toff driving the car.
"Yes, my man? What do you want?" asked the toff.

"That your motor?" asked the Cockney road mender.

"Yes. I took delivery yesterday."

"'Ow much did it set yer back?"

"One hundred and fifty thousand pounds."

"'Undred and fifty grand? 'Ow d'you afford that, then?"

"I'm in shipping. I work for Cunard."

"Well, I mend roads. I work fuckin' 'ard as well, but I can't afford a bleedin' Roller!"
