- We stood on the pavement in the rain, looking for a taxi.
- It was raining quite hard.
- Just then a man came up to us.
- He found one hole. It was in a back tooth and he filled it.
- He raised his hat politely and said to my mother,
- “Oh, Mummy, for heaven’s sake, he’s a very very old man”
- My mother’s chin was up and she was staring down at him along the full length of her nose.
- ‘I should hope not,’ my mother said.
- ‘My wallet,’ he said. ‘I must have left it in my other jacket.
- ‘Oh, good gracious me, not!’ ‘Heaven forbid I should ever do that!’
