Hello, Mrs Premise....
Hello, Mrs Conclusion. ...
: Busy day?...
: Busy! I've just spent four hours burying the cat....
: Four hours to bury a cat? ...
: Yes! It wouldn't keep still, wriggling about howling its head off.....
: Oh - it wasn't dead then?....
: Well, no, no, but it's not at all a well cat so as we were going away for a fortnight's holiday, I thought I'd better bury it just to be on the safe side......
: Quite right. You don't want to come hack from Sorento to a dead cat. It'd be so anticlimactic. Yes, kill it now, that's what I say.....
Mrs Premise: Yes.

: Really? Is it very old?
: No. We just don't like it. We're going to take it to the vet tomorrow.
: Tell me, how do they put budgies down then?
Mrs Conclusion: Well it's funny you should ask that, but I've just been reading a great big book about how to put your budgie down, and apparently you can either hit them with the book, or, you can shoot them just there, just above the beak.
Mrs Premise: Just there!
: Yes.
Mrs Premise: Well well well. 'Course, Mrs Essence flushed hers down the loo.
Mrs Conclusion: Ooh! No! You shouldn't do that - no that's dangerous. Yes, they breed in the sewers, and eventually you get evil-smelling flocks of huge soiled budgies flying out of people's lavatories infringing their personal freedom. (life-size cut-out of woman at end of last animation goes by) Good morning Mrs Cut-out.
If you hear that line on the BBC now, they won't be joking.
Monty Python = comic geniuses !
Nobody does comedy better than the Brits.
