“Them lying bastards, not likely,” I replied, “We wants to see for us selves.”
“Mr Stephenson!” Lady Rochester gasped. “No, indeed, if you must be so crude,” she snapped. “Not the old trout the kid,” I shouted, “Bugger me what do you use for brains?”
“How dare you!” Lady Rochester snarled, her breasts heaving and her face red with anger.
