*removes peanuts from ears and walks into bar*
An please.

*Enters the bar and notices the 4 days old order*

Here you are sir, sorry for the delay... this one will be on the house.

Hello, folks! *Walks up to Lady Pennywhistle* please, and make mine a cold one, m'lady!

Of course sir, right away! There you are - and that'd be if you will.

Please.

Right away ma'am!

Thanks!

Sorry I'm late in paying, but here's my worth!

Don't worry about it sir! *Remembers a promise made on another thread* As a matter of fact, next one's on the house, how's that?

*Climbs on roof to find drink. Sees can full of rainwater. Drinks it. Smacks lips.*
Naughty lips - don't do that again!
*Climbs off roof and wanders back into the bar.*
*Shuffles cards*
Pick a card

*Pays for * Uh, that one! *Picks the card on the far left side*

That's the right card, the Joker of Rubies!
That's very good luck you know.
For the full effect you should buy the dealer a drink.

*Thinks* Sounds y. *thinks/* "Eh, why not!"

*Shuffles card and waits for barkeep.*
I don't suppose you want to play again do you?

*Barkeep returns*

Mr. Vestie, I think you dropped a couple of cards... though I've never seen a Twelve of Daisies card before.

Or a four of empty toilet-roll tubes, either. Err... Card 3 from the middle and a stiff drink. I have to work again today.
