Puts me in mind of the following story -

Guy parks his car in the back streets of a northern city (Liverpool,
Manchester - take your pick). As he walks away he's approched by a young
kid -
"A fiver to look after your car Mister"
"No, its ok son, its got a really good alarm system" he replies.
"Puts out fires does it Mister?"
