Gasman calls at a house, but the owner is out. However owner has a parrot, but parrot only knows one phrase.

Gasman knocks at door. Parrot answers: 'Who is it?'

Gasman says: 'It's the gasman - come to read the meter.'

Parrot answers: 'Who is it?'

Gasman repeats: 'It's the gasman - come to read the meter!'

Parrot again: 'Who is it?'

Gasman repeats: 'It's the gasman - come to read the meter!'

Parrot: 'Who is it?'

Gasman: 'It's the gasman - come to read the meter!!!'

This goes on for some time the gasman getting more and more stressed, to the extent that, being unfit and having high cholesterol, he suffers a sudden heart attack, collapses on the doorstep and dies.

Eventually, the owner comes home to find the body. He checks it over for a pulse, can find none and says out loud but to himself: 'My god, he's dead, but who is it?'

'It's the gasman - come to read the meter.' says the parrot...
