I really shouldn't allow The Machine to run unattended overnight. It seems to have become infested with these little monsters:



Transported most of them to Venezuala. An arch-mage there still hasn't returned my grimoire; perhaps a few demon-frogs will refresh his memory?

And I leave the finer points to Sally once she's finished sorting out her latest Twitter slip up.

Somewhat cynical of you to assume a twitter faux-pas. Have you no faith in your wife's... tweeting abilities?

No

I was merely joking. I'm sure there's some other reason she's frantically tapping away at the keyboard, ignoring the rest of the world...

I am sure she will inform you of that reason in the fullness of time.

...and it will not be a topic of any interest to the press.

Quick drink?

I can't see a reasonable argument against it!

*pours two glasses*

Shocking behaviour by parliament, taking a week off when the rest of the country is in such a parlous state, have they no sensitivity to the economic situtation for the majority of the populace etc. etc.

Oh be quiet. This Commons has had shorter holidays than any you had when you were in this chamber rather than The Other Place.

I know this information may come as a surprise John, so set your glass down and prepare yourself.

...

Ready?

...

My statement may not have been entirely sincere, indeed, there may have been more than a trace of sarcasm.

I know, I know, it's a shock to the system.

...Sarcasm? F-from you? I-I-I... that's... it's...

I'm almost speechless.

Almost.

John, it will be a very long, and very chilly, day in hell before anything renders you speechless.

Was the shock sufficient to convert you to a life of sober neckwear, or will further succussion be necessary?

Oh not yet; sarcasm from you isn't that rare, after all.

Well, if giving your son a tail wasn't sufficient, I'm not sure what will be. Suggestions?

Said with the steely glint of a man who has seen far too many sofa beds.

You have no authority commenting upon my experience or not of sofa beds.

Just sofas then, and the occasional chair.

Yes, well, sleeping on the sofa and chair are no more. The sofa bed is reluctantly here to stay for the foreseeable future.

Purely out of academic interest... ...does relegation to the sofa-bed ever occur the other way?

I wouldn't dare suggest it.

I would suggest that your generous donation of one spine to the liberal democrats has been much appreciated by their supporters, but I am sure that would be an unfairly judgemental and cruel remark.

Hmm... Paddy seems to have subsided, perhaps your donation has appeased them after all. In any case, I suspect I ought to be heading off to sleep at some point in the near future.

Not so much unfairly judgmental and cruel as utterly incorrect, but I've never know such a hurdle to trip you before...

Sleep well, don't let the bed bugs bite, and all manner of other well meaning if ever so slightly odd sounding remarks.
