Me UK Publisher Sent Me 50 Quid

[R. Richard]

God bless the mark, me UK publisher sent me 50 quid. I felt that I should have gotten 50 guineas, like a toff from Knightsbridge, not 50 quid like a clerk from Whitechapel. However, I did take the money, but me publisher is a right berk, with no idea as to how to deal with a gentlemen!

With a nip of whisky on the side of each, of course

I am very shocked to hear what a cad your UK publisher is, RR. I hope you are going to go down to his club and horsewhip him on the steps.

(Congratulations on earning good money with your writing though! )

Actually, I have an even more fiendish punishment for the sod. I'm going to dehire him and get a new UK publisher. My goal is to earn even gooder money.

Gooder and gooder.

And I hope the new publisher is less of a blaggard, by jingo.
