Lady Mishap: Its so good to see you again....where did I first see you?
Lady Gently: At Lady Gosome's polo match. You held my mallett for me whilst I drew some
old orange.
Lady Mishap: Ah yes, the match. Did Lord Luckbody get over his defeat?
Lady Gently: I think he married the opposing captain's sweetheart. Lady List as she was he never
been swept off her feet so much, not since the Woolingsworth Whirlwind.
Lady Mishap: I remember that. It turned Seven Oaks into Six and a Half Oaks.
Lady Gently: Oh, trees regenerate, I am sure.
Lady Mishap: Like Lord Twist?
Lady Gently: The winning captain? I hear he's wielding the mallet more visciosly since his enforced
singlehood. He quite frites with fear. He's won a whole list of admirers despite or perhaps BECAUSE
of his being banned.
Lady Mishap: What a queer world we live in.
Lady Gently: And long may it be so.
Lady Mishap: Yes, you'll have to take a drink with me in the conservatory. It has a lovely view of the
garden.
Lady Gently: Ah, how nice. Nowadays its more important for the garden to have a lovely view of the
conservatory.
Lady Mishap: Yes, it does seem to be the major concern.
Lady Gently: Maybe not. I have a pressing one I want to put to you.
Lady Mishap: Sounds important. I shall need that drink.
Lady Gently: Well direct me in direction of the charming glass house then and I'm sure you'll find
my discourse quite refreshing.
Lady Mishap: I'll drink to that.
Lord Slimly: Two ladies with just conversation to keep them company? I must get into that. But
where's the door to gain entry and where's Burnett to announce me just after I have arrived?
