he was a top man,

and I know you two was close.

Yeah, yeah, we weren't

that close at the time,

but, yeah, we were close

as kids, you know what I mean.

Oh, sure, sure,

it couldn't have been

that much of a

shock really was it?

What with him being

so fat and everything.

[laughing]

You can't say that sh*t, man.

Well, hopefully you'll last a bit

longer than you did last month, Paul.

You were in and out

of here within an hour.

[chuckles] Yeah, well,

none of us can buy back

our past can we Yiannis, hey?

Good to see you.

How's the life of contentment

been treating you?

Phyllis, can you make

me a lovely steaming hot

cup of coffee please,

love, yeah?

Likely need lots of caffeine.

And stick some sugars

in it, five sugars, yeah.

We ain't got any sugar.

Got some of this sweetener,

tastes just like sugar.

Do you want a few drops of that?

Are you on f***ing

crack or something?

Sugar substitute

got aspartame in it

and anyone who knows anything, knows

aspartame gives you brain tumors.

I mean, it ain't bad

enough they wanna

take all our money

but her, this one,

she's trying to fry my

f***ing brain, as well.

Oh, sod off, it ain't that bad.

And, anyway, I don't want any

distractions around me, alright?

I'm on a diet.

Oh, I didn't realize

you was on a diet,

oh, you're on a diet

sorry about that.

Well, I'm not you fat c*nt,

so put some sugar in me coffee.

Alright, lads, so I tell you

what I'm buzzing you, Yiannis.

I'm a bit buzzing 'cause

I had a very good month.

I don't like to boast

but I'm gonna, right.

four flats,

a bungalow to some sweet

little gray haired old lady.

She's looking

for the downstairs,

there ain't one it's

a f***ing bungalow.

I've got 1,500 pound

in my pocket,

which I'm telling you,

right now, I'm gonna stick

a couple of zero's

on the end of that

by closing time

tonight 'cause me,

I'm ready to f***ing gamble.

Let's get ready to gamble!

Yes! So, who else has done what?

Come on, who's done their balls,

who's made a bit of money?

Well, Jack, took a bit

out of the roulette

and stuck it on a

treble didn't he?

You stuck it on a treble?

Yeah, but listen, if all

three horses come in...

- Yeah? - ...half a

million quid over it.

His first horse just

f***ing come in...

Your first horse has...

So what that's why

you wanna stick it on

a single then isn't it?

Because horse trebles

never come in.

You never know, Paul.

Mate, it ain't ever

Come on, who else has done what?

What have you done?

[Jack]

I could never have a job.

Never work for a wage

and have a boss.

It's the breeding
