A bit of Social history

A woman down the road, who was "on the social", yet had a TV set with doors on.

As far as the "social" was concerned a TV with doors was "furniture", which the social services could supply to their clients. If it did not have doors it was classified as a TV or an electrical appliance which the social was not able to supply.
