Do not despair, for I have some small savings carefully harvested from my weekly allowance. By lucky hap, it is just over a thousand, and has, for years, been hidden, beyond the wit of any thief, in an old sock....
...under the squeaky floorboard...
...behind the kitchen dresser.
[uneasily] You've seen it?
Seen it, pinched it, spent it! Same goes for those two farthings Baldrick thinks he's got hidden inside that mouldy potato.

[enters] My lord, the Queen does demand your urgent presence, on pain of death.
Oh, damn, the path of my life is strewn with cowpats from the devil's own satanic herd!
