:12:03
Was he a successful man ?
:12:05
No. As a matter of fact, he wasn't.
:12:08
You can't expect to make a living
these days just repairing watches.

:12:12
He went broke in the end.
I always told him he would.

:12:15
Hmm. Well, it must make him
something of a burden to you.

:12:20
Yeah, it-it does a bit.
:12:22
He never went back, you see.
:12:25
He's still in Soho, still thinks
he had it good all those years.

:12:28
And you-- what do you do ?
:12:31
Don't you know ?
:12:34
I have a hairdressing salon in South
Kensington-- Casa tindolini.

:12:39
Oh, you can use that word
these days, can you ?

:12:41
People don't take it for an ice-cream salon ?
- No, the birds--

:12:44
the ladies seem to like
the continental touch.

:12:47
English too wholesome for them, eh ?
:12:49
Yeah, well, it's-- it's not chic, you see.
:12:52
We found that it pays to provide
the latin lover atmosphere.

:12:57
Of course, we lay it on a bit thicker in the
Brighton shop. They're less sophisticated.

:13:00
I mean to say, in London half of them
have actually got-- latin lovers ?

:13:07
And where do you live-- above,
behind or below your shop ?

:13:12
I lease a mews house nearby.
It's convenient and attractive.

:13:16
It's Georgian, actually.
:13:18
From Genoa to Georgian in a single
generation, eh ? Not bad.

:13:21
But I doubt whether an 18th century
architectural gem in South Kensington...

:13:26
whispers quite the same magic
to Marguerite as it does to you.

:13:29
She adores old houses.
She can't wait to live in it.

:13:32
I understood she already was living
in it, once or twice a week at least.

:13:35
I'm not mistaken, am I ?
:13:40
And that your motive in renting the cottage
down here was to increase the incidence...

:13:43
of this biweekly coupling.
- Is that what you asked me
over here to chat about ?

:13:46
Never speak ill of the deadly.
:13:50
If I choose to say that my wife
converses like a child of six...

:13:55
and makes love like an extinct
shellfish, I shall,

:13:57
and I don't need to ask her lover's
permission to do so either.
