1530 - TOWER

AfTER last week's minor disaster, when the car refused to steer anymore, Frank refused to get behind the wheel of his car. "I've always said you're a coward, Frank - that's truer now than ever", remarked Betty, "The garage has repaired the car and it's as good as new now". Frank was so aggravated by Betty's comments that he told her to get into the passenger seat. He got into the driving seat, adjusted the tuner to play hardcore punk music and drove determinatively to the Tower of London. He pulled up by the Yeoman Guard entrance, got out and spoke to the shocked and alert Yeoman Warders. "I want you to lock this woman up for a week to teach her a lesson", he said, pointing towards Betty. The Yeoman Warders relaxed somewhat, and told Frank that they don't do that any more, asking him to drive away quickly before he got booked for illegal parking!
