Ah, excellent. What a splendid spread - nuts, turkey and presents. What more could a man desire at Christmas?
Well, a tree.
Oh, of course! I quite forgot. I dropped by Mr Thitwhistle's Garden Emporium, and, I think you'll agree, got quite a bargain on this special Christmas twig.
It's a bit of a tiddler, innit?
Yes, but size isn't important, my friend. It's not what you've got, it's where you stick it. [places the twig in a candlestick holder] Besides, look. We've got a whole year's profits to spend on fun and larks.
How much is it?
Seventeen pounds and a penny.
It'd be a lot more if you didn't give away so much money to the poor.
Well, yes, but in the Feeling-Good ledger of life, we are rich indeed.
I just wish we weren't doing so well in the Bit-Short-Of-Prezzies-And-Being-A-Guillible-Prat ledger.
