‘That’s a nice story, isn’t it?’ I wrote. ‘I would shed a
tear if only I could find a hand to squeeze.’
See? Classic, twinkle-in-the-eye stuff. You’ve no idea what
lay behind that little line, and neither have I because I can’t remember. It
wasn’t as simple as it sounds, though. Never is.
These days I seem to spend rather too much time drooling
over Elisabeth Pawelke, which really won’t do because I doubt that dear Lisa would
take kindly to being drooled over. She’s the one making eyes at the German
bloke with the deep voice in that video I posted.
‘You’re a cad and a bounder, sir. Get thee hence to the
eastern front and returneth not ’til thy poncy shirt be mud-spattered and
tattered, and thy lederhosen be firmly frozen.’
So there you go. Even the ditties are coming out as prose.
