It's from my old uncle, George Goodman, he ses, staring.
gpt
Why, I ain't seen 'im for over twenty years.
human
Do you owe 'im any money?
gpt
He's up in London, he ses, looking at the letter agin,
human
Wot is he?
gpt
He's retired,
human
Got money?
gpt
I b'leeve so, ses Peter, in a off-hand way.
human
I don't s'pose 'e lives on air.
gpt
Any wives or children?
human
No, ses Peter.
gpt
He 'ad a wife, but she died.
human
Then you have 'im, Peter, ses Sam, wot was always looking out for money.
gpt
Don't throw away a oppertunity like that. Why, if you treat 'im well he might leave it all to you.
human
No such luck,
gpt
You do as Sam ses, ses Ginger.
human
I wish I'd got an uncle.
gpt
We'll try and give 'im a good time, ses Sam,
human
Yes; but he ain't, ses Peter.
gpt
He's a very solemn, serious-minded man, and a strong teetotaller. Wot you'd call a glass o' beer he'd call pison. That's 'ow he got on. He's thought a great deal of in 'is place, I can tell you, but he ain't my sort.
human
That's a bit orkard, ses Sam, scratching his 'ead.
gpt
Same time, it don't do to throw away a chance. If 'e was my uncle I should pretend to be a teetotaller while 'e was here, just to please 'im.
human
And when you felt like a drink, Peter, ses Ginger,
gpt
He could 'ave the room below us, ses Sam.
human
It is empty.
gpt
Wot about you and Ginger?
human
Wot about us?
gpt
Why, you'd 'ave to be teetotallers, too, ses Peter.
human
Woes the good o' me pretending to be steady if 'e sees I've got pals like you?
gpt
Well, mate, he ses,
