3: Introducing Juggins

The debonair new arrival is called ‘Juggins’! 

It turns that he is a travelling valet, offering a speedy ‘sponge and press’ service for busy people with slightly dusty clothes: if, for example, they have been subject to a murderous assault by a crop sprayer in North (by Northwest) America and want their suit cleaned quickly before they go out on a mysterious but possibly romantic assignation. 

Juggins arranges a screening of that famous film scene to try to inspire his potential customers.

Not everyone is sure that the Potting Shed will prove a fruitful market for even a very a speedy ‘sponge and press’ service. For one thing, although they enjoyed watching the film, no one is quite sure why they might be attacked from above by a crop sprayer. Also, almost no one wears clothes. Some are still, in fact, a bit hazy as to the details of what a ‘sponge and press’ service involves. But almost all of them, however, now wish they owned a suit as nice as Cary Grant’s.
