Quotes
-
[the men are in the kitchen, drinking the home-brewed beer that Smithy has brought]
Bryn : Ooh, it's strong, isn't it?
Mick : Yeah. You don't want too much of it. What percent is it, again?
Smithy : Nineteen.
Bryn : Oh yeah. Whoo! I like it. The funny thing is, it's not my usual tipple. Normally, I prefer a Cinzano.
[Gavin laughs a little, Smithy laughs loudly]
Smithy : [Mimicking Bryn's accent] Cinzano!
[he laughs]
Smithy : I love your accent, Bryn! It's so much better than Stacey's. Say something else, go on, go on.
Bryn : All right, uh, bear with me. I got it.
[in a thick accent]
Bryn : I'm going down the Arms Park for half a dark!
[They all laugh]
Gavin : Now say something in Welsh. You know, in Welsh.
Bryn : That's the thing, you see, I can't.
Smithy : How do you mean?
Bryn : I cannot speak the Welsh language. It's a constant source of embarrassment to me, but Welsh is not my mother tongue.
Mick : Now, why is that, Bryn? Cos, every time I've been down there it seems none of you can speak it. I mean, you spend all that money on them signs and none of you can read 'em.
