:19:00
Oh, we are bitter today.
:19:04
- What's the matter?
- I'm sorry.

:19:07
I had a bad day, that's all. I lost my job.
:19:11
How?
:19:13
I got fired, that's how.
What do you think, I mislaid it?

:19:17
For pinching a glass of brandy.
:19:20
My employer thought I wasn't going
to put the money in the till.

:19:22
Till?
:19:24
I was working,
until this morning, as a barman.

:19:29
And I was given a very good horse
by a friend of mine, one Bob Rusk.

:19:34
It came in at twenty to one, and
I didn't have enough cash to back it.

:19:38
I'm sorry.
:19:43
Well, these things always go in threes.
:19:45
I wonder what the rest of the day
has in store.

:19:48
Dinner with me, I hope.
:19:53
That, of course, would be delightful, but -
:19:56
I mean, of course, on me. We'll go to my club.
:20:01
But I must finish these letters first.
:20:03
Here's the address, in case you've forgotten it.
:20:06
How will it be if we meet there
'round about 7:30?

:20:10
Fine.
:20:12
Thanks for a lovely evening.
It was great. I mean that.

:20:16
Thanks for joining me.
:20:18
It was a damn sight better
than the leftovers at The Globe,

:20:21
not that I'm in for more of those.
:20:23
You ought to get married again, Richard.
:20:24
Oh, no. You ought to know I'm no
good at it. How long did we have?

:20:29
- Nine years, was it?
- Ten.

:20:32
Ah, ten years. It was a good job
you got out when you did.

:20:36
I don't know. I suppose I was lucky
the agency worked out for me.

:20:41
You mean, you're lucky
you haven't had to rely on me.

:20:44
- I didn't say that.
- But you meant it.

:20:47
I suppose some people are good
at organisation and others aren't.

:20:51
- That's all l meant.
- And I'm not, I suppose.

:20:54
Rubbish! You know what filthy luck I had.
:20:57
Was it my fault that the roadhouse didn't go?
:20:59
- lt was OK before the motorway.
- I know.
