Guess who's sharing with Mark?
 
made it her mission to convince Prescott that the whole thing was a tad beyond him. In addition, she wanted to show that there was no one quite as out of touch with real life as Two Jags. First, she bamboozled him with a meeting with Lord Onslow, a peer so at ease with himself that he greeted the Prescotts with his flies undone. Next she took him to the Hay Book Festival

I avoid the Book Festival, the shops will be too crowded, I usually go about three or four weeks before.

Mark.... have you tried the 'new and used' section of Amazon yet? There are some real bargains to be had.

For some reason I got the impression that this was about a sandwich  with lots of fiber. I think I might like a book festival.

Buy all of mine from the Salvation Army Thrift Store.  Latest is Ann Coulter's book Treason.  Buy my clothes there too cause the morbidly obese are caring givers.  See my story in "The millionaire next door."

Ref # 3. Yes, often. If I can't find what I want in Hay I go to Amazon. Not being materially minded I even give my sister a list of cheap secondhand books she can get for me from Amazon at Christmas.

She was a nurse, but gave up work about five years ago.

You are betrayed by your didacatic style. I thought you might have emerged from a family of teachers.

Tommy,

You have at least one thing in common with Alan Ginsberg (author of "Howl" - a drug-influenced Hippy-era epic). He did all of his clothes shopping at Salvation Army and Goodwill stores as well.

No Tommy When you wake up in hospital and find your voice amazingly high, the name of the procedure is not "circumcision".
 
That's the problem with having The Gaelic as the first language. Hard to relate to a Bangladeshi surgeon.

Flash, perhaps that is why I was offered a job guarding the Sultan's harem?

I think your lady had better break it to you gently.
