We have a lot of trouble with these oldies. Pension day’s the worst - they go mad. As soon as they get their hands on their money they blow it all on milk, bread, tea, tin of meat for the cat.

Oh, I am afraid our life must seem very dull and quiet compared to yours. We are but eight score young blondes and brunettes, all between sixteen and nineteen and a half, cut off in this castle with no one to protect us! Oh, it is a lonely life – bathing, dressing, undressing, making exciting underwear…

Yes, well, of course they come here for the two o’clock matinee, all the old bags out in there, especially if it’s something like _The Sound of Music_. We get seats ripped up, hearing aids broken, all that sort of thing.
