RING, ring.

Bertie is de best – and dat’s dat

“Tanks, Gerry. I would just like to say da... da... dat Bertie is de... de... de best leader dis country ha... ha... has had since de... de Valera and people should lay off him a...a...a... and give him all dere support...”

Wait a minute, Tom, your voice sounds familiar. Are you sure your real name is Tom? What do you do for a living?

“I... I... I write comedy scripts for de public a... a... an’ I am in de civil service where I... I... I’m a member of de Drama Sitey.”

It’s amazing; you sound exactly like Bertie himself.

“N... n... n... no, Gerry. I’m Tom Burke. Got to g... g... go. B... b... bye. Tanks for takin’ de call.”
