PATCHA
God help us all!
DANNUX
And where's Boulanger now, might I ask?
PATCHA He's gone out on a little message for me. He should be here any minute.
DANNUX I suppose there's no use askin' you for that one pound two and sixpence that you borrowed from my brother, Lord Pebble, some time ago. I'm after gettin' a job from the parish priest to set a range in his kitchen, but I haven't either a trowel or a hammer, and unless I can raise the price of them, I'll lose the contract.
PATCHA
And when will you get paid?
DANNUX
The instant the job is finished.
PATCHA
How much will the tools cost?
DANNUX
Three shillin's, at least.
PATCHA I don't know if I could spare that amount, but I might be able to give you a shillin' when Boulanger comes back.
DANNUX
Was it to the pawnshop you sent him?
