I'd lose the socks, if I were you.

You look nice, by the way.
You look well.
Well?
Lovely. You look lovely.
Well fit.
THEY CHUCKLE:
How long's it been now?
Almost a year.
Hmm, Christ.
Beautiful is the word I was
looking for. You look beautiful.
Thank you.
- You could use a wash.
- Yeah.
It's all in your hair.
Mucky pup.
You've lost weight.
Just a little.
You smell like you.
That's because I am me.
Do you know, I've been
here for almost an hour
and you haven't even offered
me so much as a cup of tea.
Oh, bugger.
- What?
- Need the loo. Don't want to move.

village, so I followed her.
You followed her?
I'm an idiot.
Not actively, just out
of the corner of my eye.
I am a little bit better.
Have you still got
your private detective?
No. No, no, he gave up. I think
he got bored of taking my money.
That was good of him.
- After he'd finished paying off his mortgage.
- Probably.
If it's any consolation, I see her too.

What time's your train?

- Dry as a bone.

- Are you finished with that?
- Yeah, yes.
Are we going to talk about
what happened just now?
Did I miss something?
It was very nice, and that's

Which is my way of saying
there hasn't been anyone else.
