Housewife, 492006

[on VJ Night, Nella is standing at the living-room window watching the victory fireworks]

Nella Last:
Must have come through on the last news at quarter to twelve. Come and see! There's huge rockets going up from the ships in the dock. Come and see!

Daddy - Will Last:
[miserably] They woke me up.

Nella Last:
So that's peace, then.

Daddy - Will Last:
Well, it's not *my* idea of peace, this damn racket. Hope it's not going to go on all night.

Nella Last:
Shall we go out? Have a see, have a drive around?

Daddy - Will Last:
I can see drunken fools any time. I'm back to my bed. Will *you* go?

Nella Last:
I might just have a look.

[Will grunts]

Daddy - Will Last:
Watch out for folk chucking firecrackers.
