Thanks BIGJACK

Skimpole - character in Bleak House who 'borrows' money. And remove top = skim, shaft = pole.

Sorry, Skimpole was T P McKenna -the similar Dickens character played by Tom Wilkinson was Seth Pecksniff in Martin Chuzzlewit.

It is SKIMPOLE...a parasitic character from Bleak House. SKIM-remove top of ...POLE-shaft.
