'One at a time please!' Flossie bleated.
Annie stampeded toward Flossie and only managed to stop at the very last moment.
'We are,' she explained, 'a double act.'
And she stampeded back to Cyril, forgot to stop and fell off the back of the stage.
'As you have witnessed,' Cyril cried, 'Miss Annie does all of her own stunts!'
'And I can eat trifle!' Annie called out as she climbed back onto the stage.
'What more could you ask?' Cyril asked.
'You could ask for cake,' Annie suggested.
So, Cyril asked for cake but there wasn't any.
'If you could make a note of that please,' Cyril said.
And Lefty made a note on a form.
'Any previous acting experience?' Flossie asked.
'Pardon?' Cyril replied.
'I'll speak up,' Flossie bleated.
'If you could please,' Cyril replied.
'There was supposed to be a megaphone,' Lefty added.
'Do you still need one?' Cyril asked.
'Lord Sir Cyril of Supplyitcheaplyshire has a vast selection of selected items,' Annie mooed.
'If you could make a note of that please,' Cyril requested.
And Lefty made a note on the form.
'Now,' Cyril continued, 'myself and Ms Annie wish it to be known that, in a gesture of unprecedented generosity and with considerable generousness, we are willing to offer our combined acting experience for free!'
'FREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!' Annie mooed and she did a quick dance.
'All we ask,' Cyril added, 'is that we be allowed to avail ourselves of whatever minor catering facilities you may have available.'
'If you could make a note of that please,' Annie asked.
And Lefty made a note on the form.
