Well, you can put me in charge of whatever, but I wouldn’t mind being the island’s minstrel if that’s what they’re called. I could walk around the island and write poems about people and sing ballads whilst playing my guitar.

(And I watch Lifetime only when I am reeeeeeeaaaaallly in a bad mood, only for a couple of days. But not today - “Report from Calder” is on.)
