Written by John Kruse, one of the leading experts on Bailiff Law, this consumer friendly guide is essential reading for anyone who comes into contact with a bailiff.
The book is easy to understand and clearly explains the rights
a bailiff has, and also what they cannot do when collecting debts and repossessing goods etc.
A couple found that the only way to pull off a weekend 'quickie' with their 8-year old son in the house was to send him out on the balcony with a Mars Bar and tell him to report on what was happening.
He began his commentary as his parents put their plan into operation.
'There's a car being towed from the parking bay,' he shouted.
'An ambulance just drove by!'
'Looks like the Anderson's have company,' he called out.
'Matt's riding a new bike!'
'Looks like the Sanders are moving!'
'Jason is on his skate board!'
After a few moments he announced, 'The Coopers are shagging!!'
Startled, his mother and dad shot up in bed! Dad cautiously called out,
'How do you know they're shagging?'
'Jimmy Cooper is standing on his balcony with a Mars Bar.'
A man moves into a nudist colony. He receives a letter from his grandmother asking him to send her a current photo of himself in his new location.
He cuts a photo in half and mails it.
The next day he discovers that he had accidentally sent the bottom half of the photo. He's really worried but then remembers how bad his grandmother's eyesight is, and hopes she won't notice.
A few weeks later, he receives a letter from his Grandmother. It says:
"Thank you for the picture. Change your hairstyle... it makes your nose look too short."
These remind me of the story about a husband and wife who visit a sex therapist because things aren't working out. The Therapist advises them to do things spontaneously and in different places - for instance "over the freezer".
On the next visit the Therapist asks how they are getting on and the husband replies "Great, but we've been banned from Tesco".
A little boy was crying in Tesco's so an assistant went to him and asked what was was wrong? The little boy sobbed "I've lost my Mum" The assistant starts looking around and asks "What's your Mum like?" "Big willies and Bacardi breezers" he replied.
