[00:10.40]Why did the policeman ask the writer to come to the police station? [00:17.41]It must have been about two in the morning when I returned home. [00:22.77]I tried to wake up my wife by ringing the doorbell, [00:26.83]but she was fast asleep, [00:29.25]so I got a ladder from the shed in the garden, put it against the wall, [00:34.71]and began climbing towards the bedroom window. [00:38.60]I was almost there when a sarcastic voice below said. [00:44.36]'I don't think the windows need cleaning at this time of the night.' [00:50.07]I looked down and nearly fell off the ladder when I saw a policeman. [00:56.45]I immediately regretted answering in the way I did, but I said, 'I enjoy cleaning windows at night.' [01:07.86]'So do I,' answered the policeman in the same tone. [01:13.36]Excuse my interrupting you. [01:16.20]I hate to interrupt a man when he's busy working, but would you mind coming with me to the station?' [01:25.82]'Well, I'd prefer to stay here,' I said. [01:30.64]'You see, I've forgotten my key.' [01:34.12]'Your what?' he called. [01:37.11]'My key,' I shouted. [01:41.21]Fortunately, the shouting woke up my wife who opened the window just as the policeman had started to climb towards me.
