Excerpt: ...eat his arter paying for it, and Ted and Gerty had to finish it for 'im. "They're expensive, but they're worth the money," ses Gerty. "You are good to me, George. I could go on eating 'em all night, but you mustn't fling your money away like this always." "I'll see to that," ses George, very bitter. "I thought we was going to stand treat to each other? That was the idea, I understood." "So we are," ses Gerty. "Ted stood the 'bus fares, didn't he?" "He did," ses George, "wot there was of 'em; but wot about you?"
