Inspector: Yes. And, er, he never showed any inclination towards being a Scotsman before this happened?

Wife: No, no, not at all. He was not that sort of person…

Inspector: He didn’t wear a kilt or play the bagpipes?

Wife: No, no.

Inspector: He never got drunk at night or bought home black puddings?

Wife: No, no. Not at all.

Inspector: He didn’t have an inadequate brain capacity?

Wife: No, no, not at all.

Right… this is the plan, then. At 10:45, you, Reg, collect me and Ken in the van, and take us round to the British Jewelry Centre in the High Street. We will arrive outside the British Jewelry Centre at 10:50am. I shall then get out of the car, you, Reg, take it and park it back here in Denver Street, right? At 10:51, I shall enter the British Jewelry Centre, where you, Vic, disguised as a customer, will meet me and hand me £5.18.3d. At 10:52, I shall approach the counter and purchase a watch costing £5.18.3d. I shall then give the watch to you, Vic. You’ll go straight to Norman’s Garage in East Street. You lads continue back up here at 10:56 and we rendezvous in the back room at the Cow and Sickle, at 11:15. All right, any questions?

Today we have, for appetizers moules marinières, pâté de foie gras, beluga caviar, eggs Benedictine, tart de poireaux, that’s leek tart, frogs’ legs amandine, or oeufs de caille Richard Shepherd, c’est à dire, little quails’ eggs on a bed of puréed mushroom. It’s very delicate, very subtle.
