Rodney (cont'd)
Rehearsing with the group
tonight!
Del
Group! You're a drummer who's
got no drums!
Rodney
No - well, it's early days
yet!
Del
I don't know why you waste
your time with that bunch of
wallies for.
Rodney
They're not a bunch of wallies!
Anyway, you haven't heard us
play yet.
Del
I don't need to! I mean, look
who yer lead singer is, Mental
Mickey!
Rodney
Oi, there's nothing wrong with
Mickey Maguire!
Del
Nothing wrong! He bit a
bloke's ear off once, that's
all.
Rodney
Not all of it!
Del
Well, before you become deeply
involved in any musical
argument with Mental Mickey,
make sure you're wearing a
bullet-proof balaclava! Let's
get this stuff in the van.
Rodney
What we bought anyway?
Del
Well, it's obvious innit,
sausages! Talking dolls, innit.
Rodney
I mean what sort of stock is
it? Bankrupt, fire damaged,
water damaged, soiled or just
plain hooky?
They go outside.
Del
It's none of them Rodney!
These are near-perfects!
Rodney
Near-perfects! So what's wrong
with 'em?
Del
Nothing.
Rodney
Well, if there's nothing wrong
with 'em why aren't they
called 'perfects'?
Del
It's just a bit of legal
jargon used by the insurance
company to save on paperwork
that's all. Don't worry about
it.
Rodney
That's easy for you to say,
but I'm the one who has to go
down the Arndale Centre and
flog these things, I mean,
look at the aggro I had at
Christmas with them cricket
bats!
(Quoting Del)
'Each one personally autogra-
phed by Viv Richards!'
Del
And each one was personally
autographed by Viv Richards!
Alright, it wasn't the Viv
Richards!
Rodney
No, it was Davey Richards'
eldest sister! I had nothing
but comebacks on that!
