There's
a first
world
debt
crisis:
Rod
and Joy
are up
against
it.
Rod's
business
selling
sock
suspenders
is not
doing as
well as
could be
hoped,
Joy is
addicted
to Marks
and
Spencers
and they
need a
new
dryer.
Neither
of them
knows
what the
other is
or isn't
doing
and soon
things
will get
on top
of them.
Joy's ageing Auntie in the cellar is like their money problems: always
there,
an
embarrassing
and
unspoken
presence.
