Overheard in the bathroom - the Chairman is about to swill his mouth with fluoride mouthwash, as advised by his dentist in a forlorn attempt to retain the last few rotting tombstones in his mouth:
Chairman: "These bloody childproof tops are the bane of my life."
Hay: "Mmmmm..."
Chairman: "It's not what you think - I don't have my glasses on and can't see where to press on the cap to release it."
Hay: "A likely story..."
Hay was given the wedding present of a book book by (surprisingly) her book club. It's called The Good Housewife Encyclopedia, last published 1963. Here's an excerpt (click to enlarge):
