You lot underestimate him.

Yes indeed mon petit - c'est moi.

Mind you, that was several changes of identity ago, so you have every excuse not to recognise me.

How is your little dog?

How is your little dog?

Andalusian?

[Choo Choo]

Aha! So Sorry! But the sin still remains of not remembering your display name, then forgetting your real name. What was your display name again?

My little dog, unfortunately, died, actually about this time last year. It was awful; he had a heart attack right next to where this photo below was taken, on the patio. He had actually had emphysema for a little while, and then was on steroids but the strain was all too much. But at least he died quickly and didn't suffer.

[Choo Choo]

I'm sorry to hear about your dog.

Tangentially . . . in revisiting A Fish Called Wanda recently, I was delighted to see Stephen Fry in a walk-on near the end . . . he was a traveller at the airport whom Kevin Kline holds up for his boarding-pass.

It's like looking in a mirror dude

We powder our wigs with the ground-down bones of the exploited masses.
