[Panel 1]
[Bell]
Quick! Talk about something that
isn't child-rearing or cooking!

[Nils]
Uh?

[Bell]
That's all my aunts could talk
about. For two weeks solid.

[Nils]
Well, I've just been building
a new fileserver for the house...

[Bell]
Or computers. That was
the bloke in the train all
the way to King's Cross.

[Panel 2]
[Nils]
Um.

[Ginny]
Well, I spent New
Year's Eve nursing
an injured duck.
Very clammy, ducks.

[Caz]
And I learned how to build rib
and fan vaults. Handy if I ever
need to reconstruct a church.

[Elizabeth]
Is that likely?

[Caz]
I hope not. They don't pay enough.

[Panel 3]
[Nils]
And Elizabeth has been teaching
the cheeses to play mah-jong.

[Elizabeth]
Oh, that's
putting it a
bit strongly.

I only had to remind
them of the rules.

[Nils]
I wouldn't mind, but they're
beating me nine times out of ten.

[Panel 4]
[Bell]
Thanks, you two. That's
more like normal.

[Steve]
Oy, oo're you
calling normal?

[Bell]
Nils and Elizabeth,
bless them for it.

[Steve]
Oh, yeah, they are at right
angles to everything else.

[Bell]
Now I KNOW I've got home...

Let me behind that
bar, would you, Steve?
