The only people in Dove's Pub when Bill walked in were Val and Yolanda Pike and a couple sitting at a table at the far end of the Pub, eating breakfast.
Yolanda walked to the end of the bar near Bill.
"Morning boss. What can I gets you?"
"Boss?"
"Well youse do own the Pub, right?"
Bill laughed.
"Just a coffee, Yolanda, with Irish Cream."
"Comin' right up."
Valerie walked up to the bar and leaned on it, next to Bill.
"Who are the mainlanders?"
Bill shrugged.
"I'm not one hundred percent sure, but I have an idea. How do you know they are mainlanders?"
"They be mainlanders."
Valerie laughed a little.
"They came in 'ere this mornin' lookin' for breakfast and complainin' about being attacked by a man and a woman down near the wharf, last night."
Bill laughed.
"Freddy and Gertrude."
Yolanda put a coffee in front of Bill.
"They must have been spearfishin' agin. I guess they never learned their lesson from the rifles last year."
She leaned on the bar.
"Why would they de down hear the wart at night anyway?"
