florida honey i think if i remember right that lasted about 40 minutes we are nearly dreamt

and what's brought on this sudden interest in tennyson is it some bronzed australian coach

down at the club yeah i just want to have something to do while you're on the golf course already

oh who the heck is that i'm on the course in 20 minutes it's long distance it's got that sound

yeah right now hello oh hey dennis uh speak up a bit this is a hell of a bad

lightness what do you mean we've got a problem

you're going to be there much longer b*mb you want a written estimate such as the main monopolizing it you

oh where buddy my fiance hasn't snuffed it man she's just got cold feet by the way wait

wait protein you know i think that there's something that exists between men

that doesn't exist between men and women who's sharing a room with him i'm not

talking about that all just really typical of you guys i'm talking about comrade ship not turd burstling

they are oh things are really looking for there if you give them a forks and

spoons and salvia rings next i don't think women understand that you say

what what i'm talking about conrad ship i think that's what freight

ties are that when your lot showed up and actually felt threatened somehow i actually felt like

excluded well you kind of bloom i saw what happened yeah no no no no i think barry's right you

know what was that well any of our women would have reacted the same wouldn't they huh i mean they sort of resent our shared

pot no brenda felt left out because she didn't share a wooden hood with us locked in deuces or

no ground granted but i sort of showed up at your place oh oh darling and joking full of the joys

career i would have been quite happy about the bring a field quilling for change to her

meant something completely different than that chance to hermit changing from humping the bloke at the rates office

to humping the tv repair block to humping some gadget wild and slipwear how would you take it things between you

and your marjorie aren't all together tickety-boo well would you be with her after that um

i'm sorry guys but quite frankly i think you bought it on yourself oh roblox well look when we were in the

falklands right you never you never wrote so we never found you never said johnny morning it was when we were in june yes yes but

that's simply because of the sort of woman what's your ears isn't it she's been humping her at times i was my

back's being turned up which came first as the chicken or the egg your neglect or promiscuity and after

all the love you take is equal to the love you make in the words of john lennon

i never quite said what it meant actually morning what up then you're up with

alexander right where you been i've been talking all these brief he reckons that there's a preservation

order on the house you can always uh appeal to the department of the environment oh great

mood kenny you could say that i'm just a weebity peeved with you oh why didn't you like that little

masseuse i sent you last week she did wonders for my backswing i'm

talking about the house kenny why do you not tell me that it was a listed building you didn't ask me

how am i supposed to turn it into time-sharing units when it's got a preservation order slapped on it i didn't know that was your intention oh

best off kenny didn't actually think i was going to live there did you yeah i did actually you better tee offs under some people

coming [Laughter]

oh dear idea what bad luck no i was actually going to live in the

place when i first bought the trump rather saw myself as a country square

got myself all kitted out g*ns from purdys suits from decks bought myself a fishing rod and a range

rover cuatro what for you back

even went up there a few weekends to invigo myself with the local populace

invited the neighbors over for sherry

even opened a bleeding shirts bazaar the local populace i assume were quite unaware of the fact that you were

london's leading pornographer oh no yeah when i kept that stump

hinted at the rag trade i was really getting into it

one day i woke up and i thought i'd even like to win my days here i wasn't being morbid more philosophical

really i thought if i snuff it i'd rather like

to do it in a typical english rural setting preferably with a cricket match on the

village green and is there honey still for tea what rupert brooke who's he want to run

a nice mob no he's a poet kenny shared your newfound affections for the joys of

england ah i must give him a read is he one of the modern ones no no long gone kenny

died in a foreign field which is exactly what you will do ally i was set up that's the tragedy of

it i feel a wee bit the same way oh come on ally you've acquired a

perfectly beautiful residence well below the market value all you've got to do is to restore it to its former

grandeur why don't you turn it into a fat farm

people please be careful calm down i calm down there's a lot of skill on view okay you know there won't be any loose

bottles why don't you go to a field if you want to do that because it rained over the night after

and your darn is traipsing in your lovely osteoary with muddy boots now do you

to happen [Music] it's going to be some nice scenery around here apparently there's a famous

waterfall within driving distance oh once you can see a tusson waterfall lake huh there's bound to be a bit of

action somewhere just a question of sniffing it out and why well if you don't sniff it don't be discreet there look we already think

you're the whale punch around here didn't give him any calls to prove at all right i'll suppose

if the question is you know what i'm talking about he's trying to live like adults

i think he took his pub when they turned him down for the wheel clamp unit hello carol hello daddy

i'll take that [Music]

what's your form then sorry what the council's here oh much as i

expected the procedures on listed buildings are fairly standard i could appeal to the dmv but that could take a year

so we've had it then no there's a degree of flexibility i mean there's no way we can rip the

guts out of the house and convert it into time-sharing units but if i can convince the council that

we plan to restore the house without changing the original facade well there are certain alterations we

could make they're obviously hello petting yeah a good time

oh listen i've left your clean washing in the back of the car oh no no i'm with the arty taxi tell you what

you'll get checked in and i'll get you some tea oh lovely thanks danny

is that what ali wants you oh i don't know yet dennis but i do know that ali bought the house as an investment

he didn't buy it to live in can you see him and vicki is lord and lady of the manor the heart still far away from her

hairdressers can i have a fresh pot of tea here please pat and another cup please

thank you whatever ali decides to do with a house it's going to take you a while to draw the plans open it

not much point my lads on the boat well not necessarily whatever we do there's a certain amount of spare work has to be done well the

sooner you'll get them to work the better because god knows what they're gonna do around here
