"�85 for an extraction, sir" the dentist replied.
"�85!!! Huv ye no'got anythin' cheaper?"
"That's the normal charge," said the dentist.
"Whit aboot if ye didnae use any anesthetic?"
"That's unusual, sir, but I could do it and knock �15 off.
"Whit aboot if ye used one of your dentist trainees and still without ananesthetic?"
"I can't guarantee their professionalism and it'll be painful. But the pricecould drop to �40".

Thats the normal charge, said the dentist.

I cant guarantee their professionalism and it'll be painful. But the pricecould drop to �40.

How aboot if ye make it a trainin session, ave yer student do the extraction with the other students watchin and learnin?

It'll be good for the students, mulled the dentist. and it's going to be very traumatic, but I'll charge you �5.
