Last of the Summer Wine1973
[first lines]
Alvin:
Every morning we get this flurry of wind stirring up the dust, and it's you.
Nora:
Well, I'm a flurry in a hurry. It's time you were dressed and gone.
Alvin:
Why don't you slip into something more comfortable? Like a good mood.
Nora:
Oh.
Alvin:
Sit down. Join me.
Nora:
Alone? With a man in his dressing gown? Never!
Alvin:
It's tea and toast. It doesn't mean we have to get married.
Nora:
I used to see my husband in his dressing gown, *only* when he was poorly. That's what dressing gowns are for, not for flaunting about in front of respectable widows.
Alvin:
Whi! It's not much of a flaunt. I'm sorry if it's getting you all emotional. You'll find things get easier once the fires in the flesh have died down.
Nora:
They die down very quick when the only fuel is men.
