Good morning, John.

Good morning, Hugh.

And how are you and your excellent corner shop this fine morning?

Good. Good, thanks, Hugh.

Good. Right.

There you go. Loaf of wholemeal, Telegraph, and an apple.

Right, Hugh.

Although, just thinking, John,

hoo, yes, goodness, I'm thirsty. I, I really am.

I, I, I've got a tremendous thirst on all of a sudden!

Oh.

Yes, I, I feel like I should grab something to drink right away.

Do you recommend anything?

Well, we have lots of different drinks, as you know, Hugh.

Yes. Yes, you do, but, I'm so thirsty,

I feel like grabbing something right at hand,

something from this chiller here.

Yes, here, here we go.

Export Jürgen Brau.

Yes, well, maybe I'll try one of these.

Yes. Maybe you will.

Oh, and actually,

now I notice this is an alcoholic lager beer, isn't it, John?

10 percent! Blimey! That's quite a lot, isn't it, John?

Yes, Hugh. It's the most alcohol per milliliter

at the lowest cost in this corner shop.

Is it really?

How fascinating!

Well, it, it's the continental way, isn't it?

In Spain, they wouldn't dream of starting the day

without a couple of cans and

maybe a vodka.

So, how much is that?

£2.70, Hugh.

Ooh, er, well,

now I look, I, I don't think I can actually afford the

the bread, the paper, and apple,

and this drink.

Not quite, Hugh.

Oh, well, maybe I'll put all three of these items back,

and maybe get two cans of this

lager beer that you recommend.

Just in case one doesn't completely rid me

of my perishing thirst.

Yes. Yes, that is the usual solution.

Do you know what, I'm so thirsty,

I think I might just crack this open and

drink it here on the step of your shop.

Of course, Hugh.

And why don't you lie down on the pavement afterwards

if you're feeling a little bit sleepy?

What an excellent idea!

See you tomorrow, John.

See you tomorrow, Hugh.
