:19:02
Serves me right for getting
involved with a bloody drunk.
:19:04
Yeah, I know what you mean.
I've just been involved with one of them.
:19:09
Oh? Oh, I don't know.
:19:13
Where are you supposed to
meet a man, you know, at 30?
:19:15
Did you leave your Zimmer frame
on the train?
:19:18
Thank you very much. It was lovely.
:19:21
- Do you want some more?
- Oh, no, no. I couldn't.
:19:28
So how is Thelma these days?
:19:31
- Oh, she's still the model
of maternity, my mother.
- Oh?
:19:35
Swigging two bottles of gin a day
and puking up my Sunday lunches.
:19:38
- Oh, dear.
- She's a right old strop
at the moment, actually.
:19:41
Why is that then?
:19:43
Stupidly, I told her that you were
coming down for the weekend.
:19:46
She's been insisting
that I bring you around.
:19:48
Well, let's go around.
I'd be quite happy to.
:19:50
No, thank you. I wouldn't wish her on
my worst enemy, let alone my oldest friend.
:19:55
Wouldn't mind a weekend off, anyway.
She sends her love.
:19:59
Oh, that's nice.
Will you send her mine?
:20:01
Mm.
:20:03
So how's Kathy these days?
She still making her own bread?
:20:06
- Oh, yeah, yeah. She's great, yeah.
- Fantastic, that bread.
:20:09
- She fancies somebody at work.
- Does she?
:20:12
A newcomer. But he doesn't
work in the Housing Department.
:20:14
- Mm.
- It's really funny seeing her
dress up to go in every day.
:20:18
But, you know, I really wish
that she'd meet somebody...
:20:20
'cause she's been on her own
for such a long time.
:20:23
Last time my mother had a lover,
I had to call the police.
:20:26
- Did you?
- Derek. Tried to break in
at 3:00 in the morning.
:20:29
Didn't last very long.
:20:31
No, it's strange. 'Cause if she does start
going out with this fellow...
:20:35
I'm worried, uh,
I'll be really jealous, you know?
:20:38
Do you mean jealous of the bloke or jealous
of your mother because she's got a boyfriend?
:20:42
Oh, no, no, neither. No, it's...
Well, it's hard to explain.
:20:46
It's, um...
:20:48
Well, I'm scared I might lose a part of her.
:20:52
Oh, I know it sounds silly, but...
:20:54
You're more like sisters,
you two, aren't you?
:20:56
I suppose so. That's the main reason
why I've got to leave home again...
