I seem to have gotten myself hopelessly lost and wound up here.

Mind if I pop in for a pint and rest for an hour or so? Thanks.

I am trying to find the much advertised Prattolian Convention. I am one of the lesser noted speakers for the evening and there is a free meal in it for me so I really must be on my way if you would please be so kind as to point me in the right direction.

Might fine House Stout you have here.

That ain’t house stout, sonny – that there’s the spittoon…

Care for some nuts?

How's that coke working out for you?

Pssstt! Dude!
*Slyly opening coat*
I've got some really neat genuine English keyboards here. All gen gear. Honest!

None of that foreign tat, with those funny "esses" and stupid little lines running the "Dees" and stuff.
You won't get no accidental umlauts and shit with these babies. No way.

Whadya say? Cheap as you like. Just feel the quality...... Nice huh?
Just a fiver to you squire.
OK, OK. I'm robbing myself I know. Call it three quid and a pint to you matey, but hurry up and make your mind up before that rozzer in the corner gets interested.

Spittoon eh? Thought it was a might thick for Nut Brown Ale but not that bad once you get past the lumps floatin in it. I've 'ad worse.

Pine nuts soaked in Absynth are my Fave, Thanks!

As for my novel it is posted here for all to read and add to as needed.

As The Story Goes

It is not finished yet. I am open to suggestions.

Pete,
Thanks for the generous offer on the keyboard but alas I will have to pass this time. You see, I am the Calligrapher for the Queen (no not that one .... Elton John) and need to stay in practice.

Nice set of Italic nibs then - only £2.99?

Genuine mock-ivory and tortoiseshell ink stand?

Roccoco blotter?

Anti-skid full-stop treatment?

Bottle of blue-black Quink?

C'mon, there's gotta be something here that takes your fancy!

Just lend us a quid then you cheapskate..... I'll pay you back when I get a job..... honest.

Pete Andrews, Tuesday, 18 February 2003 16:24 (twenty-two years ago)

I can never have too many nibs, I may have to relieve you of that particular burden.

If it's just a little cash to get by until you are back on your feet then I would be happy to help ya out. No problem at all.

All I need is your signature here at the bottom of this innocent looking blank sheet of paper. Not to worry, I will fill in all the boring legal stuff later.

How 'bout that drink I was gonna buy you ....... and your friends over there too!
