Lord Bartensby Of Whaedis Pools

There, there's my title. Hey...look...

----------

"I am Lord Bartensby of Whaedis Pools. But sadly, I do not carry money or credit with me, so if you would be the gentleman I know you to be, you'll accept my word as a promise to pay the bill when I am able to yes? But a fortnight kind sir. That is surely acceptable to you."

"No, that's 4217.36$ worth of stuff you have there, your..Lordship, that isn't happening today or any day. So pay up or get out of my store."

"You would impugn my honour sir? How dare you! I will not stand for this outrage!" And Lord Bartensby harumphed haughtily.and glared at the man behind the counter.

"Lord or not, no one pulls a fast one on me. I've built up a successful business from nothing and I ain't buying what you're selling. So one last time, pay up or get out!"

"I insist as Lord Bartensby Of Whaedis Pools that you do not stand in my way sir, I need all that I have selected and I simply will not allow this gross interference with important matters of the Crown."

"Crown eh? I'm a bout to crown you if you don't get out now!" And to back up his statement, he stepped out from behind the counter and flexed his muscles angrily, before unbuttoning his dark red dress shirt, to reveal a confrontational tee shirt.

"I see sir, you leave me no recourse, though it does not please me in the least to do this."

"Look buddy, look at me and look at you, it's no contest. I'll give you to the count of five and if you're not heading out that door by then, you'll be heading out the hard way! One, two, three..."

----------

Wow, if only I could have but ten percent of what Lord Bartensby tried to buy, I'd be pleased. I know it isn't much, but right now, it would be awesome. 8-/.

Next when new readers. There's no telling what I'll write next.
