E: 23/11 Win an Extendable Mirror (Email)

From Dave Gorman's e_Newsletter:
There isn't much in the way of props to give away this week... but I do have an extendable mirror that I used in Storage Hunters a couple of weeks ago. It was confiscated on the day - because, as anyone who's seen the show knows, everyone takes it extremely seriously - but it was returned to me when filming was over.
I know it's not much, but it's up for grabs. If you've been dreaming of a telescopic arm with a small mirror and a couple of dim light bulbs at the end of it... then this could be your lucky day.
The usual rules apply... and by usual rules, I mean these:
I'll pose a question for you about Tuesday night's episode. Please don't reply to this email with the answer - I won't see it. Instead you have to email your answer to [EMAIL="MLIGoodish@Gmail.com"]MLIGoodish@Gmail.com[/EMAIL]. Your email has to come from the address you used to sign up to the mailing list. One entry per person.
At some point on Wednesday I'll use a random number generator to pick an email from my inbox. If it contains the right answer, comes from an address that's on the list and is the only entry to have come from that address, then you'll win my Storage Hunters Extendable Mirror. (It makes it easier if you include your name and address in the email as well as the answer). Um... that's it. Oh... I only use that email address to run these competitions, so I won't see anything you send there unless the random number generator leads me to it by chance!
This week's question takes the form of a missing words round... and as it's found poem related... it's worth advising you not to waste your entry by guessing with something that makes sense!
This is a line from the found poem... but what word (or words) have I missed out:
'As the saying goes, when you ________________ you sometimes make an "a s s out of you and me"'
Answer: Accumulate badly
