- First Store Assistant: I think you would remember him, sir.
- Customer: Why do you say that?
- First Store Assistant: Well, would you remember a man 6 foot 9 inches high, 40ish, and he's got a scar from here to here, and absolutely no nose?
- Customer: Oh... I think I do remember somebody like that.
- First Store Assistant: Ah well, that's not Michael Ellis.
- Customer: What do you feed them on?
- Second Store Assistant: Blancmange.
- Customer: Blancmange?
- Second Store Assistant: I'm sorry, I don't know why I said that. Ah no, you don't feed them at all.
- Customer: What do they live on?
- Second Store Assistant: They don't, they die.
- Customer: They die?
- Second Store Assistant: Of course they do, if you don't feed them.
- Second Store Assistant: So sir that is, if I may say so, 184 pounds 1 and a half p, sir.
- Customer: Oh, will you take a check?
- Second Store Assistant: Ah yes sir, if you don't mind leaving a blood sample, and uh, a piece of skin off the back of the scalp, just here sir. Sorry it's just for identification, you know, can't be too careful.
- Customer: I think I'll put it on account.
- Second Store Assistant: I should think so, much less painful.
