Hi

I once heard a recording of a radio sketch by (I THINK) Arthur Haynes. It went along the lines of a builder writing to his boss explaining why he had to miss work that day. What had occurred involved a pulley and a tray of bricks which had got caught up with his leg and catapulted him upwards. When he finally landed back on the ground, the aforementioned brick succumbed to gravity and fell on him. This went back and forth a few time but the writing and the reading of it made in so funny - clearly far more funny than my fairly rubbish description.

Can anyone help pointing my to where I can hear this.

I know the scenario, but for the life of me I cannot think of the man who did this. From the 1950/60s and it definitely wasn't Arthur Haynes...........

It'll come to me......... >_<

Someone must know it.

Gerard Hoffnung talking at the Oxford Union in the 1950s.

That's the man - well done JohnnyD!

Famous for his orchestral cartoons.

People. You have no idea how long I have been looking for this. Thank you. I think when I first heard it, it was a show about Arthur Haynes. I don't normally use such tools but I will from now.

There's already a few threads about Arthur.
