Well, you're a fine bunch. Not one of you got a scar anywhere on your body. No callouses, no wind-burn. You'll make short eatin' for him, sure enough, when the water comes through those doors and he's riding the wave, that big old mouth wide open for some tasty aristocrat. Shark don't care who your mother was, he just swallow you down...

Whisky. Straight. Make it a good'un.

My word what an amazing collection of the country and colonies finest we have in my humble establishment this evening.
Oh, you had'nt heard?
Charles Breckenridge-pierce the third passed on nd his beastly whore-bait of a sone was itching for more of his sweet opium derivitives and sold the place to yours truly.

Ah, now boy bring me my pipe and smoking jacket, I've been wearing this coat for 2 hours and it is perfectly rank, and not fit for a man of my rank..er..stature.

Certainly Milady, I shall ask some of the stablehands to resolve the matter.

Unless sir would care to leave quietly?

the only on-line japery to read in this sort of establishment is available on the interweb called TheWeekly but ill be dammed if i can sort out a link, its tomfoolery nearly made me drop my pipe once its was so risable.

Elbow-deep in greasy washing-up suds, I slowly plot my revenge. All this money is, by rights, mine.

Mr Sax, I would appreciate it of you could do your conniving in silence. It upsets the other servants.

I say, Perci- go easy. Can't have too much fraternization with the lower orders, what?

*breaks off from washing up*

I know I should detest these titled ladies and all they stand for, yet I feel strangely drawn to them, and though I hate myself for my subservience I am suddenly come over with the urge to satisfy their every need and basest hunger...

*continues with washing up*

Wasn't he involved in that sordid business with the Lady Moncrieffe?

And the cocker-spaniel. I hear her family got her a missionary posting out in the tropics. Beastly business.

Strictly sub rosa, old bean. I say - what a splendidly top-hole set-up we have here.

Anyone for a bally game of bally croquet, what? Chaps?

(crib to reel thorts: but... this is the way I talk all the time...)

Top hole! Pass the bally flamingoes, what?

*grunts with pleasure as Young Sax holds the flamingo still and works some prestidigitatory wonders on the honourable old membrum not so virile*

I say, Cozzers, fine bit of flamingo this. You been farming them long in your colonial holdings? Not one of the Mombasa Cosmicjamas are you? Think I once shared old Pa Jamas' berth from Port Said to Suez. Played a mean game of Strip Racing Demon.

I say! Simply smashing to see you all here! Top-notch do, this! And so many fetching, young dowagers for a con... err, that is, a charming young aristocrat such as myself to pitch woo with. (Rubs hands together fiendishly).

I say chaps, let's round up some of the lower orders for a few games of soggy biscuit.
 
 
STOATIE LIEKS CHOCOLATE MILK
07:57 / 23.01.03
Sorry to arrive so late, chaps, but I've been having the most beastly time "consoling" Lady Chormonderley after that terrible business with Eddie. Eaten by weasels, doncha know, or so they say. Whole thing seemed damnably odd to me, I must say.

Still... life goes on, eh?

Sax, dear boy... could you bring me one of those exquisite macaroons?
 
 
Sax
08:01 / 23.01.03
Of course. Ignore their sogginess, sir. Merely a little dampness from the washing up water residue on my hands...

*Sax places plate of soggy biscuits in front of fops and heads back into the scullery, sniggering*
 
 
Tezcatlipoca
08:18 / 23.01.03
Curses. That damnable butler Sax has gorn and lost the soggy biscuits. Just when I had some oiks rounded up as well. I say, Stoatie old boy, do you think I might filch one of those Macaroons? I'm feeling a little peckish...

09:30 / 23.01.03
I say, young lady, that's rather a fetching blouse you've got on.

12:26 / 23.01.03
Pardon my latecoming chaps, room for one more? A large Cognac please...no, put some more in...ghastly scoundrels outside, what? Round them up and throw them in Lady Chlamydia Poncenby-Smythe's trout lake, that's what I say.

What?

What do you mean, no women allowed in here?
 
 
Mourne Kransky
12:35 / 23.01.03
Women, you say? God, takes the mind back a bit, wot? Haven't seen one of them for fifty years. Chaps with bumps in front, aren't they? I think my dear old mater was one once. Decent sort of chaps, all in all but, no, we don't have any of 'em in here.

I may be wrong, of course. The drink'll do that. That and having lost my monocle down the back of this damnably comfy horsehair fauteuil.

Tezcatlipoca
13:19 / 23.01.03
Quite right and proper. Besides, these damn native fellow enjoy being hunted, what? Why I recall the time one of those colonial chappies strayed too near to the estates. He had an invigorating chase through the woodland that day, I can tell you. I say Xoc old fruit, pass the brandy would you, there's a fellow.
