Mario
Mario told me this story himself. When he first came to England from Sicilly, he did gardening jobs to make a living. One day, the lady who he was gardening for, who was quite tasty and middle class, asked him if he knew anything about gutters as she needed someone to go up a ladder.

Mario, knew enough English to get to work on the task. It took him maybe two hours to clear her blocked gutters (no... we're not there yet) and then he went to report that the job was done.

She asked Mario what he wanted for the work. Mario said "I take sex". The lady quite stunned, asked Mario if he was sure. Mario insisted "Yes. I do good job, you give me sex".

This went on for a while, and in the end she agreed, took his hand and lead him through the house and started to take him upstairs...

The penny dropped... and hurriedly he explained "No lady... I usually charge TEN but for you, I do it for SEX pounds".

I disputed his chain of events. Any real Italian would have boned her first, then asked for the money!
