Lewis: So you got a free house then 

Des: Yeah 

Lewis: When they back ?

Des: Monday. they've gone away in the motorhome 

Lewis: Oh aye, where've they gone?

Des: Fucking... I dunno. They did tell me but I forgot. It's only like 5 miles away.

Lewis: What's the point then, might as well stop at home.

Des: I know, just getting their moneys worth innit. Change of scenery innit. 

Lewis: You know their shagging (laughing)

Des: Fuck off...But yeah probably. They've got a sign that says 'dont come-a-knocking when the motorhomes-a-rocking'. 

Lewis: What and they hang that on the outside?

Des; Nooo its on the inside, above the microwave. 

Lewis: Well what's the point in that then?

Des: Its not supposed to be a functional fucking sign, just like a novelty thing. If you see the bastard motorhome rocking you arent gonna knock anyways are ya.

Lewis: Yeah true...Surprised it hasn't tipped over knowing your parents.   

Des: What the fuck you on about?

Lewis: ......Ya know

Des: What?

Lewis: Cuz there fat.

Des: You can get fucked. 

Lewis: Come on why not?

Des: Cuz we only know like 4 people

Lewis: Just invite them then

Des: No cuz we'll all get smashed, then something will end up getting smashed and when my parents get back my head'll be smahsed open. 

Lewis: Nar it'll be rate. Just invite a few people over, a bit of drink, bit of conversation.

Small music montage - 3 lads driving rapid down a country lane - Owen driving - Charles in the passenger and Todd in the back

Owen: The fuck you on about? It is and always has been the wrong trousers.

Todd: overrated

Charles: 100% 

Owen: Just the train sequence alone makes it not only the best Wallace and Gromit film but the best fucking stop motion animation film. 

Todd : Narr Coraline is better than any Wallace and Gromit film. 

Owen: You a fucking 14 year old goth girl?

Charles: Yeah you can't be saying that, Coralline is a sick film 

Owen: Yeah its sick 

Charles: But better than Wallace and Gromit? No fucking way. But a close shave is better than the wrong trousers. 

Owen: Your so fucking wrong 

Todd: ...How much did you say we were getting 

Charles: A Q 

Todd: How much is that? 

Charles: seven grams 

Todd: No I mean like how many joints is that 

Charles: Well it depends how big you make em

Todd: Like on average 

Charles: I dunno like 10

Todd: That's not a lot 

Charles: Nar but he says this new stuff is like next fucking level. 

Todd: Fucking better me. Rate need a smoke. Jobs been stressing me out. 

Owen: What, do people keep taking stuff off your self's

Charles: And then he's gotta replace the things people have taken and put more stuff on the self 

Owen: Im getting stressed just thinking about it 

Charles: Have you had a meeting with HR yet about the mental toll of restacking shelf's

(Charles and owen laugh)

Todd: One day I'll kill myself and you won't be laughing. I'll be laughing. 

Owen: What you'll be laughing when you kill yourself? 

Todd: No after I kill myself

Charles: I wonder what percentage of people kill themselves while laughing?

Owen: That's a good question. Like you've got to be proper mental to be laughing while committing suicide. 

Todd: No i'll be laughing cuz i'll be dead and you two will be going 'oh we should of listened to him when he said he was stressed, oh i feel so bad, i wished we'd listened now'.

Owen: Yeah, we'd never say that. 

Charles: and you'll be dead, you can't laugh 

Todd: Afterlife innit 

Owen: Oh did nobody tell you? Yeahhhhh thats not real. You just die. 

Charles: What's so stressful about working at Sainsbury's anyways?

Todd: Just me managers an absolute knob 

Owen: You've said that about every manager you've ever had. 

Todd: Not when I worked at maccies 

Charles: Didn't he get sacked for touching up all the girls? 

Todd: Yeah, but he was still sound.
