          Well this has just reminded me of L'Hussier (The Bailiff) by Marcel Aymé so thank you for that. It's an excellent short story contained in The Man who Walked Through Walls available from Pushkin Press.

              Recently read Underland, by Robert McFarlane, which referenced that very book - the title story being commemorated by a sculpture in the Paris catacombs.

                I thought this was about Dog The Bounty Hunter's wife. She's in hospital, you know.

                  My history teacher at Sec Mod had been a bailiff in the East End of London. He came to teaching late in life (his 50s?) so was neither burned out nor raging inwardly. He was great, he'd recite limericks when appropriate:

                  There was an old man called Ghandi
                  Who went into a pub for a shandy
                  He took off his loincloth to wipe off the froth
                  And the barmaid said "goodness that's handy!"

                  from British 20th century colonial history.

                  Do carry on...

                      ... with absolutely no effect on the willingness of tv channels to churn the shit out

                      Speaking after the hearing, Mr Brown, who remains a certified high court enforcement officer,
                      Well that'll learn him

                        "I could feel my anxiety rising. I was shaking like a leaf and the gentleman said, 'My name's Gary Brown but you'll know me from Can't Pay? We'll Take it Away!"
