Scene 3


'Stones, sir?'


MANDY:
Ohh, I hate wearing these beards.
BRIAN:
Why aren't women allowed go to stonings, Mum?
MANDY:
It's written. That's why.
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Pssst! Beard, madam?
DONKEY OWNER:
Oh, look. I haven't got time to go to no stonings. He's not well again.
[hee-haw hee-haw]
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Stones, sir?
MANDY:
Naah. They've got a lot there, lying around on the ground.
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Oh, not like these, sir. Look at this. Feel the quality of that. That's craftsmanship, sir.
MANDY:
Hmmm. Aah, all right. We'll have, uh, two with points and... a big flat one.
BRIAN:
Could I have a flat one, Mum?
MANDY:
Shh!
BRIAN:
Sorry. Dad.
MANDY:
Ehh, all right. Two points, ah, two flats, and a packet of gravel.
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Packet of gravel. Should be a good one this afternoon.
MANDY:
Hehh?
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Local boy.
MANDY:
Oh, good.
HARRY THE HAGGLER:
Enjoy yourselves.
