“In my day, the price of fish was so much that you’d pay not to have to buy fish.”
“Aye, you even had to pay for as not to not to pay for fish.”
“Oh aye, but those were the best days of our lives. We were happy in those days.”
“Even though we were poor.”
“Because we were poor! You had to pay to be rich you know.”
“Oh aye. The things we had to pay for.”
“Aye, we had to pay for those things as well.”
“And then we had to pay for money. If we wanted some money we had to pay for it.”
“Not like today. You can just walk up to someone, hit ‘em around the head and walk off with their money.”
“We had to pay to do that.”
“Aye, I remember.”
“Aye.”
“Aye.”
“Drink anyone?”
“How much?”
“Aye.”
“2 coin.”
“How much for a refill?”
“Aye.”
“Half coin.”
“I’ll have a refill then please.”
“Aye, and one for me.”
“Aye, make that three refills.”
“Aye.”
“Anywho…”
“Anyhow?”
“Anywhere?”
“Anywhat?”
“Anywhy?”
“Anywhen?”
“Anyway…”
“Aye.”
“Refills.”
“Aye.”
“Who’d have thought eh?”
“Thought what?”
“Aye.”
“You had to pay to think as well.”
“Aye.”
Another passage from "The Way of the Imp", and in this one there are 4 imps just talking. It is slightly reminiscent of Monty Python's "Four Yorkshiremen" Sketch...which is kinda weird...

It may help to think of the imps as hybrids between Scots, Irish, Scousers and Northeners...I don't know why, it just does.
