Pearlie: Ye'll need to. Ye cannae expect Bert tae keep ye sittin' aboot like a lady!
Nelly: Aye you're right there. It would take one of us to be working.

Nelly: Bert did.
Pearlie: Och well. I suppose it's a good idea. Has it a bell on it?
Nelly: Aye it has.
Pearlie: That'll keep him off the wee birds then.

Pearlie: What is it?
Nelly: A nice bit of chicken.
Pearlie: No. I'll not be atin' chicken until this oul bird flu is by.
Nelly: You can't get bird flu from eating chicken.
Pearlie: Well I'll no be atin' it!
Nelly: Did you go off beef that time the foot and mouth scare was on?

Is Pearlie related to Bert - need I ask?
By the way I haven't the heart to break it to my hubbie that the ladies in the window of a certain cully house are not the same as the ladies in the windows in Amsterdam!! He will be gutted....
(Don't worry I don't know were you live - I don't do stalking....its too time consuming.)
Bert is Pearlie's only child upon whom she dotes.
A house of ill-repute in Cully? Specialising, no doubt, in the in-bred. Not that we'd know anything of such shenanigans being innocent crayturs.
