(to Peter) Drinking champagne in the middle of the day during a recession. Who do you think you are, P. Diddy?
It was a half-bottle, on my thirtieth anniversary, and I was recycling it; at least give me credit for that!
Oh right, no, sorry Peter, yeah, I take it all back. About as strong a defence as 'the fertiliser in my homemade bomb was organic.' What have you got planned for this evening, dancing girls on a yacht?
Garage, car, hosepipe.
Oh, good, the anniversary present your wife's been dreaming of. (to Fergus) And Fergus, what about you?
Well, I'm launching Silicon Playgrounds, properly this time, tonight at a learning centre.
Yeah, something you didn't clear through me. According to Terri Coverley, you announced this before Peter took his daily "gaffe dump." What was the word I used this morning?
Oh, you used a lot of words this morning, it was like a fucking Will Self lecture.
What was the word I used?
Coalition?
BOOM! So you will go to the learning centre where you will re-explain Silicon Playgrounds with Peter, who will make an abject grovelling apology for being both a digi-tard and an elderly racist!
So first you take the policy away from me for Peter to screw up, then you take salvaging the policy away from me for Peter to screw up! Good, yeah, that's just great!
I'm bored of this! I'm going for a Twix! (leaves)
