Keith and Jason helped Lucasta and Eleanor clear away the debris of their morning tea.
“We'll do the washing up,�? offered Jason.
“Nonsense.
You young things must have a hundred things to do! I'll do it.�?
You young things must have a hundred things to do! I'll do it.�?
“No you won't, Eleanor! My friends all descend upon you like gannets and eat you out of house and home! The least I can do is do the washing up!�?
“it's so nice to see young appetites,�? Lucasta said, “all that energy and able to eat whatever you want and not put on a pound of fat all that zest for life.�? She glanced worriedly at Jason, thinking that for a time his zest for life had disappeared. But he looked happy. Had he forgotten Brent? She didn't think so. One didn't forget the person one loved dear Harold had been dead these twenty years and had only met Jason at the christening if that counts as meeting you could hardly have small talk could you with a baby but at least Harold had seen his grandson which was nice though come to think of it Harold would not have been too happy about Brent though she wasn't sure about whether it was because Brent was working class or a man perhaps not so much the man because after all he'd been to Eton and, well, there were all those pashes weren't there with teachers and the other girls at her school and she was sure that boys at Eton had that too but then did boys have pashes Harold never said, so interesting.
