RC: Well, I was kinda wondering whether I could return this Private Steer for a refund, I only bought it on Friday you know. Shop Assistant: It doesn't appear broken sir? , seems to be in fine working order. RC: Yes but I was thinking since I paid you $250,000 for it, it might be able to run down a Kiwi sprinter that runs like a drunk. See I actually had my eye on last weeks special, the Wild Iris Underwood/Turnbull/Cups combo for a mere $55,000 Shop Assistant: Yes, yes, very popular that was. RC: Mmm, I noticed, so maybe we could swap? Shop Assistant: I'd love to help but we're all out of Wild Iris. This weeks special is Fighting Tiger, a cheap import from Perth, a steal at $50,000. RC: Tiger eh, well thats very carnivorous of you but I was thinking more along the lines of a racehorse. I mean a tiger on a racecourse would be liable to eat its jockey, trainer and have Alf Matthews for dessert. Shop Assistant: Whereas a horse would eat carrots instead... RC: Good point. I'll take one Fighting Tiger thanks. | |
