"Quinton is down in the bar, playing the VLTs and 'aving a beer."

"Watch him. 'e does have a bit of a compulsive personality."


"He's fine. Ise gave him a couple 'undred dollars. Told him that was all he was getting. Besides Ise needed the break. Ifin yuse knows what I means."


Lindsay laughed.

"I think Ise do."


"Anyway," Tanya continued, "I just wanted some time to call you and see 'ow things are going."


Lindsay took a deep breath.

"Well, Perry's been tryin' to get units for his crews, but so far no luck. The earliest we can get some is a week from now."


Tanya let out a long sigh.

"Wese can't wait another week. I don't want to lose that kind of time. It could set back our opening time for da summer."


"Well, whats else can wese do?"
