Adapted to be closer to modern patience levels, a small segment follows :
| Flurby Jim | I need to jump up, jump up and get down |
| Benedick | Jump up, jump up and get down says you sir, but a woman is more than a mere antelope |
| Flurby Jim | Shut up, Benedick |
| Benedick | Shut up, says you, but you are the up shutter |
| Flurby Jim | Shut up! |
| Benedick | Shut up, shut up, you repeat sir! Shall I compare you to a repeater in summer, sir? |
| Flurby Jim | Please . . . please . . . please . . . shut the hell up |
| Benedick | And now your repetition needs not even seperate sentences - you are a hacksaw. Or maybe a hawk. |
(Flurby Jim punches Benedick in the face, kicks him repeatedly in the stomach and pulls his arms off)
Flurby Jim, meanwhile, was in a comtemplative mood :
He also remarked :
"The thing about the Edinburgh Fringe Festival, right, is that the serious shows are quite good (although the comedy is laughable not in the intended way), but absolutely no-one just gives me money. Even when I threaten them with knives." - Flurby Jim
Prompting the riposte :
"I'm the last of the famous international playboys" - (one hit wonder) Ricky Martin
At which point F.Jim's mobile phone rang :
"Hello? Yes, I'm at the station. The walls are grimy and the way is badly lit. Before me I see THE BUCKET. Exits are north, west and down . . . I do not understand the phrase 'grow out of it, I hate you, and I've always hated you' . . . Are you sure you want to end this adventure? . . . You visited one location and experienced 0.1% of my life" - Flurby Jim
Its just a lucky thing the rest of the civilised world realised that although the festival is good fun, artistically its mostly quite rubbish.
