  Jean : Morning. Nice lie in?

  Lionel : Yes. Well, I thought everybody was up.

  Jean : Does it matter?

  Lionel : Yes, it does as a matter of fact.

  Jean : Would you like me to go up and blow a bugle in Sandy's ear?

  Lionel : Sandy is in the bath!

  Jean : Oh, should I be surprised about that?

  Lionel : I saw her in the bath.

  Jean : Young Mr Smooth.
