00:04Hi!
00:05Here we go.
00:06Two seconds out.
00:07I want a word of you.
00:08Round one.
00:09Ding, ding. What about?
00:10What about?
00:11That's two words.
00:12Sorry?
00:13You wanted a word that was two.
00:16Now, if you'd excuse us, we've got some important business to see to.
00:19So you did bid on the trade, Ann?
00:20No, no, we outbid you, which wasn't difficult,
00:23considering the amount you offered.
00:25Talk about cheapskate.
00:26Where did you get that from?
00:28Janine, sponsoring that Christmas tree was my idea.
00:30Oh, yeah.
00:31Patent it, did you?
00:33Copyright.
00:34What?
00:34Patent in is for inventions and copyrights for books and things.
00:38I know.
00:38Look, all's fair in love and war.
00:40Does this mean we've lost our and all, then?
00:42Did you put in a bid, too?
00:43Why shouldn't we?
00:44Er, a funeral parlour sponsoring a Christmas tree.
00:48Well, that's dead festive.
00:50Yeah, but you carry on like this, Janine, and then...
00:52Yeah?
00:53Or what?
00:53Whoa.
00:54Mick.
00:55Captain it.
01:03Amen.
01:04How much is that going to cost?
01:05Oh, for the first round, anyway.
01:07They could have sparkling plonk after that.
01:11That was being a dry lunch.
01:13No, that is being clever.
01:15Which is why the Vic is sponsoring that tree and not Bill Enterprises.
01:20You ain't heard, then.
01:21Heard what?
01:22From the council.
01:23Yeah, we heard this morning.
01:24Not since this morning.
01:25Why should we?
01:26The bids are closed.
01:27In fact, they closed about one minute after we put Art in, from what I remember.
01:32Bill.
01:33What?
01:34It's amazing what that name can still do when whispered in certainies.
01:37The only thing it makes me do is gag.
01:39Like councillors, I still owe my old man a favour.
01:41What are you saying?
01:42I'm saying that they extended the deadline in case another bid came in.
01:45And guess what?
01:46It did.
01:47From me.
01:49It looks higher than yours.
01:51Well, then we'll bid again.
01:53In fact, we'll double it.
01:55What?
01:55Trouble it.
01:56Quadruple it, if you want.
01:57Hold up a minute.
01:58It makes no difference, because now the bids actually are closed.
02:01And they won't be opening them again either.
02:03Queen Vic?
02:04Bill Enterprises.
02:06Just no contest, is there?
