Cretin And you ' ll have me to answer to, if you come within a mile of the ' Village Green with the Pump.' Pickles Who do you think you are, little man, the Bull Ferguson? Cretin The Bull doesn’ t frighten me. Pickles Sorry! You must be a little bulldog. And here was me thinking you were a lap dog. Cretin Shall I have him, Marmaduke? Want me to take him out? Pickles I ' d rather go out with the Bull Ferguson, I just don ' t fancy you for some reason. Twaddle Leave him, Cecil. He may be the most obnoxious person in Plonkton but he has to serve drink to us. Let’ s say he is our servant. Pickles If it wasn ' t costing Twaddle an extra penny on your pint of milk, I mean beer, I ' d have you barred ages ago. Twaddle Are you trying to tell me you charge Cecil an extra penny for his drink? Pickles No! I charge YOU an extra penny for his pint. Twaddle Never mind. A penny in your pocket is nothing but a penny in the pocket of Felix Wetweed. Pickles He ' s right about that; Wetweed ' s fingers are never out of my pockets, so I didn ' t answer back. Cretin How come, Pickles, you never catch Felix Wetweed with his hand in your pocket? Pickles How come I never catch you with your hand in your own pocket especially when it’ s your round? Cretin If it weren’ t out of respect for your wishes, Marmaduke, I ' d erase that little blighter- right now! Pickles I ' ll fight you at six-thirty, Friday, on the Village Green with the Pump, as a curtain raiser to the main event. Cretin You ' re on. Pickles And, Cecil! Cretin What? Pickles‘ Don ' t bring the Bull Ferguson.’ Cretin If I needed the Bull he would be there for me. Pickles The Bull Ferguson wouldn’ t help his granny across the road if she hadn’ t her purse with her. Cretin I saw the Bull Ferguson kicking Sidney Slopsoup so that a bus didn’ t run over him. Twaddle Enough Cecil! Kicking someone’ s head in is hardly helping them, is it? Pickles Oh! I don’ t know though— in the case of Sidney Slopsoup it’ s a borderline case. Cretin Sidney Slopsoup used to be a man of means. Pickles Sidney Slopsoup means to be a man but he he’ s making a bad job of it.
