L43-2: Fully insured

Shortly after it was launched,

the pie committee went to a local inn to celebrate.

At the same time,

a number of teenagers climbed on to the dish and held a little party of their own.

Dancing proved to be more than the dish could bear,

for during the party it capsized and sank in seven feet of water.

The pie committee telephoned a local garage owner who arrived in a recovery truck to salvage the pie dish.

Shivering in their wet clothes,

the teenagers looked on while three men dived repeatedly into the water to locate the dish.

They had little difficulty in finding it,

but hauling it out of the water proved to be a serious problem.

The sides of the dish were so smooth that it was almost impossible to attach hawsers and chains to the rim without damaging it.

Eventually chains were fixed to one end of the dish and a powerful winch was put into operation.

The dish rose to the surface and was gently drawn towards the canal bank.
