female radio dispatcher:
[
over that radio, as Quid is getting ready to go to bed] Base 4 to Gypsy 397, are you there?
Patrick 'Pat' Quid:
[
responding sacrastically] Mayday, mayday, this is flight 77, I seem to be in a great deal of trouble, I'm losing fuel, I need help!
female radio dispatcher:
Is that you Gypsy 397?
Patrick 'Pat' Quid:
Negative darling. This is Quid, Patrick Anthony Quid. As in British sterling.
female radio dispatcher:
Why do we always have trouble with you Gypsy 397?
Patrick 'Pat' Quid:
Because you keep calling me "Gypsy 397".
