I want never gets ...

Dialogue 500

"Hello little girl. What's your name?"

"Felicity and I want a Barbie, and a fairy wand, and a doll's pram, and a piano (a real one, not one of those 'lectric keyboards. I got one of those.)"

"And have you been a good girl?"

"Erm ... maybe."

"Go back to Mummy now and I'll see what I can do."

"Hello erm... not so little boy. What's your name?"

"Fred. And I want a popsicle maker and a donut fryer and a snow cone machine and lots and lots of chocolate."

"Ow. Well if you'll get off my lap I'll see what I can do. Ow."

"Well hello mamma. (whispered) I don't think I need to ask what you want from Santa. I'll see you when I get home."

"Oy Santa, you got your ears on old man. This is what I want an' you're gonna get it for me right. I want a playstation 4, the full set of 'Call of Duty', all the GTAs, phones, steering wheel, gun, oh an' chuck in one of them flashin' light boxes."

"Oh really. Well, I want never gets. What happened to 'Please may I have' . And the odd 'thank you' wouldn't go amiss. I remember a time when kids just asked for one special toy. Sometimes all they wanted was their dad back from the war or food on the table..."

"'Nuff with the good ol' days, you gonna get my stuff or am I gonna beat the crap outa you?"

"(shouting) Security!"

"I'll get you ol' man."

"You are definitely on the naughty list. Elf, order a sack of coal for that young man."
