Conversation One
W: Gosh! Have you seen this Richard?
M: Seeing what?
W: In the paper, it says there’s a mangoing roundpretending he’s from the electricity board. He’s been calling atpeople’s homes, saying he’s cometo check that all their appliances are safe.Then he gets around them to make him a cup of teaand while they are out of theroom, he steals their money, handbag, whatever and makes offwith it.
M: But you know Jane, it’s partly their ownfault. You should never let anyone like that in unlessyou are expecting them.
W: It’s all very well to say that, butsomeone comes to the door and says electricity or gas, andyou automaticallythink they are ok, especially if they flash a card to you.
M: Does this man have an I. D. then?
W: Yes, that’s just it! It seems he used towork for the electricity board at one time. Accordingto the paper, the policeare warning people, especially pensioners not to admit anyone unlessthey havean appointment. It’s a bit sad. One old lady told them she’d just been to thepostoffice to draw her pension when he called. She said he must have followedher home. He stolethe whole lot.
M: But what does he look like? Surely theymust have a description.
W: Oh, yes, they have. Let’s see. In histhirties, tall, bushy dark hair, slight northern accent,sounds a bit like youactually.
