Ghost enters the tavern wearing a fake moustache.

"A pint of cider please. And a pickled egg."

(hmm... a spy...?)

Our excellent bartender will be here in a moment, he will take your order. Meanwhile can I offer you a cup of Earl Grey breakfast tea, scones with Mrs Darlington's Orange & Whisky Marmalade and today's newspaper?

Yes please. And a blueberry muffin.

Being the owner of a tavern is no easy job. That's why you are so important Stees - the bartender is a customer's best friend. 🙂
Ah yes. What is said at the bar, stays at the bar.👍😉

Of course, we always keep them for you.

FYI he, Ghost is “OK”. We scanned him and according to the scan he is not a “problem”…assuming, of course, our scanner is working properly and our tech, assures me that it is.🤔

I think you are confusing me with some other customer. My name is Derrick, and I'm a trampoline salesman.

Maybe so, I notice I sometimes confuse customers with others, so I stay in the background fully content with just owning the place. If you want to sell a trampoline, you had better talk to our bartender who also happens to be our accountant.

Trampolines have definitely come back into fashion.

Indeed, I replaced our own sofa with a trampoline. (When my wife found out she hit the roof).

I think we should have at least two, but as you know money talks and Stees is the money. 🙂



A very good scene in Casino Royale.

Money and Stees are easily parted.....So I hear.



Edit: But then, I'm only a passing trampoline salesman.

You might have heard wrong - the reason I hired Stees as bartender and accountant is that, apart from his social skills, he really is very good with money and seldom lets it out of sight, his that is.

Rumour has it his wallet has more cobwebs on it than an old shed.

🙂 He is good at his job, and if he could only find enough space for two trampolines and the money, you can reach an agreement before you leave.

I keep my wallet in an old shed, with several padlocks and a miniature pitbull guarding the door. There's one window with stainless steal bars and a Himalayan mountain goat guarding that.

Can I borrow a fiver for the bus?
