Or has TA improved noticeably, since that nauseating little sound effect, Henry, has been consigned to the specially sound-proofed Ruauri cellar.

I just hope they have somewhere similar in mind for Pip.

Not hearing Henry is always better than the alternative, dear.

It would be sad if you were to get your hopes up, though.

No.

sowwy and all that.

god I hate optimists. The minute you are out of bed the buggers are making you feel inadequate and slack. Which is really rather rude of them, when you think about it.

Steadyā€¦ Iā€™m not that much of an optimist.

Shall we say I have pessimistic leanings.

Handrails, dahhlink. Theyā€™ve changed my life. All this leaning, terribly dusty-dirty - and the dry-cleaning billsā€¦ Astronomical. Something -al or ol or ic, anyway. Ask my great looming boy here, heā€™s terribly clever - no, child, donā€™t do that with your shoulders, it makes you lookā€¦ oh, well, if thatā€™s your attitudeā€¦
Of course, I was a child bride you knowā€¦

Hang on, what are we meant to be talking about? Thereā€™s a fair chance I hate them and would starve in the midst of plenty rather than give them a fair crack, whoever they are. Plague on them.
or to put it another way, ā€˜As you were, pigsā€™. Could it ever have been put better?

Iā€™ve always been a ā€œglass half emptyā€ type. It means thereā€™s room for a top-up :beers:
