    I can let you off the accents at a pinch, as you may not have them on your keyboard, but not "vous" for "vu".

    you can rent a dog for £5.00 per day with maintenance thrown in.

    I havent yet found any good leasing deals on the string. There is obviously another opportunity here for a smart entrepreneur to supply a dog fully integrated "with string"

    Apparently Eastern European beggars are making £30 per hour in London these days. I have now set up a "begging agency" where we find the pitch and take 25%.

    I am looking for beggars (you will be pleased to hear that they do not have to be Easternn European) so if any of you are interested then free training will be provided.

    I am afraid that we are also going to cut their hands off in order to maximise the "feel sorry" look and get the earnings up. It will also stop the the thieving pikeys ... sorry customers, from picking up their... sorry, "our" earnings without us getting our cut (if you will pardon the pun)
