To the Manor Born1979

[Audrey and Marjory are discussing Ned, one of the estate workers]

Marjory:
There's hardly a clock in the neighbourhood he hasn't broken at sometime or another. What about that clock at Mulbery-St. Nicholas he mended? It must be the only church clock with a cuckoo in it.

Audrey:
He's a craftsman. If you don't give him the work he'll never get better.

Marjory:
But he's been doing it for thirty seven years.

Audrey:
Well there you are! You can't expect him to get it right first time!
