I immediately thought, well maybe my cook, Idris, has taken this. Because the thing was, that the rooms were all locked and you couldn't have got in to the erm, to the room, or any of the rooms of the house, without showing some sort of sign of entry, if you see what I mean. (Yeah) And er, he had access to all the keys in the house, you know (Oh, I see),

So erm, I went to his room, and erm, he'd gone off already. He'd go shopping, in fact, in fact, his room was locked. Erm, I got the keys, unlocked it, went in, sort of searched the room, felt rather sort of guilty, you know, at sort of going through his personal possessions in this way.

But there was nothing there. So you know, I thought, Well, hell, what do I do next? I'd better go to the police. And erm, my mind was still very much on him, that, it must be him.

Erm, so I went down to the police station and erm, said that the money had been stolen and would the police please come to the house, and investigate. And would they also investigate my cook, whom I suspected.

And they said, erm, well, they wouldn't come and search the cook or look around the house unless I made a definite accusation against him. And if I made a definite accusation against him, they'd come along and er, take him back to the police station and really sort it out.
