A bit of a limp excuse, that.
(One of them? Easy to tell, one was in a wheelchair. Oh, well I suppose it's time for an afternoon tale.
Pa was also a polio cripple but got about on crutches whilst Michael Flanders was wheelchair bound. Both were unslim and wore full sets. One evening in the Leather Bottle (Warlingham, Joe and Edna Cotton presiding) where Pa was a regular an unknown Gent misidentified Pa as the entertainer. Pa had to make strenuous efforts to put the persistent fan right. Pa was sure the chap thought him a liar when Pa later walked out on crutches).
