[Panel 1]
[Nils]
Well, that's YOUR new year
resolution shot down in flames.
[Elizabeth]
What on earth are
you talking about?
[Nils]
There are no less than three
books of yours on the
kitchen table. Only read one
book per room, wasn't it?
[Elizabeth]
Oh, THOSE.
I'm only READING "Three on
a Fjord" by Two Of Them.
[Panel 2]
[Nils]
I'm supposed to believe that?
[Elizabeth]
Well, of course.
"Through Darkest Teneduc
with Axe and Camisole"
by A Gentleman Explorer
is the SEQUEL, Nils.
I wouldn't be reading
it at the same time.
[Nils]
And "The Young Newt Hunters"?
[Panel 3]
[Elizabeth]
Oh, give me a break, that's my book
for when I'm in the kitchen cupboard!
I only just found it. It's
quite rare now, you know.
If you see anything else
by Ponsonby or his
pseudonyms do let me know.
[Nils]
Oh, sure, I haunt the
second-hand shops looking for
Victorian ripping yarns...
[Panel 4]
[Nils]
Hang on, do you mean
OCTAVIUS Ponsonby?
I had all those
as a kid.
I think they're in
a box in the attic.
[Elizabeth]
Books?
In the attic?
squeeeeeeee!
[Nils]
The ladder's in the kitchen cupboard.
