Larks’ tongues. Wrens’ livers. Chaffinch brains. Jaguars’ earlobes. Wolf nipple chips. Get ‘em while they’re hot! They’re lovely. Dromedary pretzels, only half a denar. Tuscany-fried bats. Larks’ tongues. Otters’ noses. Ocelot spleens. ---

Then did we bust the Harry Tony mob, who did seek to import Scandinavian filth via Germany. For six years they cleaned up a packet - came the day I got whiff of them through a squealer and within one week did a mop-up right good. They’re now languishing doing five years’ bird in Parkhurst. ---

I’d like to answer this question, if I may, in two ways: firstly in my normal voice and then in a kind of silly high-pitched whine. ---

Shut up! This is a hold-up, not a botany lesson. Right, now my fine friends, no false moves please. I want you to hand over all the lupins you’ve got. ---

Depressed by rats? Do mice get you down? Then why not visit Colin Mozart’s Rodent Extermination Boutique. Rats extirpated, mice punished, voles torn apart by Colin Mozart, Munich’s leading furry animal liquidator. ---

Yes, you’re quite right. I’m fed up with being treated like sheep. What’s the point of going abroad if you’re just another tourist carted around in buses surrounded by sweaty mindless oafs from Kettering and Boventry in their cloth caps and their cardigans and their transistor radios and their Sunday Mirrors, bomplaining about the tea - ‘Oh they don’t make it properly here, do they, not like at home’ - and stopping at Majorcan bodegas selling fish and chips and Watney’s Red Barrel and calamaris and two veg and sitting in their cotton frocks squirting Timothy White’s suncream all over their puffy raw swollen purulent flesh 'cos they ‘overdid it on the first day.’ ---
