Each week the whistling dustman came down the back garden, hoisted the full dustbin on his shoulder, carried it up the garden and tipped the contents into the dustcart. |
It can be compared to an overflowing rubbish-bin, which our brain, this amnesiac dustman, chronically forgets to empty. |
Therefore you can have an indication of the dustman in Mr. Inspector's place. |
He was a pupil at the John of Gaunt School before taking on jobs as a milkman and dustman. |
Beauchamp glanced at his note-book for the name of this man, who was a ragman and dustman. |
This, the story about the dustman, reads like one of his monologues, with the added advantage of turning out to be a very creepy ghost story. |
