2 " Looking out of the window at the infinite sky, I prayed out, 'Dear Baby Jesus, I am sorry for my sin, even though I do not know what they are, which seems a bit unfair if it is going to be held against me.

17 " Dave said, “Tarts’ wardrobe?” “Loos.” Dave said with sort of admirationosity in his voice, “Outstanding” midnight "
18 " I could have stayed holding on to Masimo and riding round forever, round and round, like that bloke on that doomed phantom boat, The Flying Dutchman. Of course there are differences—he was not on a scooter, and I don’t have a beard and I am not Dutch. "
