– Ah! Spring! Season of snowdrops and girls in frocks.
– The sun might do my rheumatism some good.
– You’d have to go out in it.
– There’s always a snag.
– But out in it is where the damsels are, and frolicking lambs, and probably a few bods on a picket line getting a bit of a tan.
– There’s not many frolicking lambs in the Market Square.
– But there are frocks! And perhaps even smocks!
– Go and have a cold shower. And then go on a course.
– Pshaw! It’s Spring! The joys of! Daffodillies! Easter! New life! The resurrection etcetera!
– Whatever. I’m not sure if what I’ve got is rheumatism or arthritis.
– Is there a difference?
– I’m not sure. We could Google it.
– I use Bing.
– Nobody in their right mind uses Bing.
– Bing in Spring! Damsels in dresses! Old men still grumbling!
– I think I may have said this before: you are an idiot.
