[Panel 1]
[Bell]
You've been leaving recipe
books lying around open again.
[Elizabeth]
Oh. Have I?
[Bell]
I'm not stupid, you know.
I can SEE what you're up to.
[Elizabeth]
I just thought it was a bit like
money for old rope, really.
[Bell]
Yeah sure, except that
I DON'T DO COOKING.
[Panel 2]
[Elizabeth]
You seemed to me to be doing it ok.
[Bell]
That's not the
point! Cooking means
nothing but trouble.
[Elizabeth]
And notes printed in purple.
[Bell]
I suppose that's true. And I hate
to admit it, but it was rather
fun. That's why it's dangerous.
[Elizabeth]
One thing leads to
another, you mean?
[Panel 3]
[Bell]
Well, I don't suppose
I'm likely to be tempted
in an ordinary kitchen.
[Elizabeth]
All mod cons at a
conference centre.
[Bell]
I liked the electric spit over
the open fire. You don't get
those in a flat in Limehouse.
It must be great to be
able to afford a place like
that for one's wedding.
[Elizabeth]
They didn't hire it.
[Bell]
They got it free?!
[Panel 4]
[Elizabeth]
It's one of the family houses.
[Bell]
God's teeth! You mean it
belongs to Ginny's cousins?
[Elizabeth]
They turned it into a
conference centre so they
can afford to live in it.
[Bell]
Next time I shall ask for
twice as many of those
purple bits of paper...
[Elizabeth]
[style thinks]
Result! She's talking
about "next time"...
