I had a bloke round offering to do my drive for £30. He seemed a nice chap and said I wouldn't appear on any game shows. Well what he said was, "£30 cash and no questions asked." I think he had a friend because he kept looking over his shoulder as he was talking to me.
He also said his mate would be over the moon when I said yes. So as they were passing that way...

Nice place you have here, Vestboy. He didn't have a van saying "Neil Armstrong Landscaping" by any chance?

I think he had an Irish name. Yes, that's right Michael Collins. He got quite cross that I didn't remember him when I knew Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin so well.

That Neil Armstrong built me a patio once. He made a good job of it too, except that he made the doorstep too low, so you have to jump down from the front door to the step. I told him, "That's one small step for man, one giant leap for mankind."

One cuppa coming up, Girl. 
You'll find the milk in the back of the fridge. Next to that old bottle of glow in the dark beer. It never gets drunk but it saves me a fortune in fridge lights.

Mmmm, tea - bit late in the day for me though. Could I ask you to save me a cuppa for tomorrow morning?

Did he plant a flag in the middle of your garden when he'd finished?

No, but he sent a little remote controlled buggy thing out to take samples of the cement.

No he builds putting greens and he likes you to see where the hole would be best placed.

Hmmm, looks like Vestboy has gone too... but I can pretend to be him if you like...

no - it wouldn't be the same without the ferrets.

Mmmm... I don't seem to have any ferrets with me... best wait for him to come back.

Morning all ( and the ferrets). I thank you for the ovation and never fear I always wash my hands before I shake somebody else's.
