OK, so promise me you're not going

to do it any more.

Promise. Say it.

That's 2, please.

Are you happy with the bottle?

Good evening, good evening.

I'm all right, how are you?

Hey, how are you?

How are you?

Good. I'll just be with you

I look forward to it.

That's 6, please.

What would you like?

Er...

A pint of lager.

There you go.

Thank you.

Do you want a drink?

No, no, I don't drink on the job.

Really?

Thanks. So, how was your day?

Long. Good.

What you doing at the weekend?

I don't have weekends, Eddie,

you know that.

Come on, of course you have

weekends. Everyone has weekends.

No. Not when you're married with

four kids, you don't.

That's true.

It's time you got married.

Looking for the right girl,

you know.

Getting over the hill, aren't you?

How's Ian?

He's all right.

Will you drop me

at the end of the road?

Why I don't just take you home?

It's stupid.

Just drop me at the end of the road.
