Just as well, there's very little wall left for hunting trophies, after that plague of estate agents.

Persons intending to travel by open carriage should select a seat with their backs to the engine, by which means they will avoid the ashes emitted therefrom, that in travelling generally, but particularly through the tunnels, prove a great annoyance; the carriage farthest from the engine will in consequence be found the most desirable.

*dusts off the doorman, sits down and packs pipe. Lights a match and holds it to the bowl.*
Oh dear. It would appear there's nobody here.
*burns fingers, grumbles, lights another match and begins puffing away.*

Well, smoking is about relaxation, so it should be logical thus that we take a relaxed attitude toward posting...

*walks in grumbling*
I can't believe it!
*throws paper on to the center table*
Can you believe the politics in today's world, talk of making liquor illegal!? If our boys need the grain over there they should get it from the Brits! Its not like if our boys don’t get their biscuits one morning The Kaiser is going to run over them, it is just preposterous!
*storms over to a window-side chair and watches the rain while trying to light a pipe*
*grumbles*
Perposterous......

Outlaw alcohol? We can't have that now. It's a disgrace, an unwarrented and unjust assault upon my right to enjoy a drink or six, I tell you. My MP will be hearing of this. Just as soon as this election malarky is over with.

Ooooh, is there an election on? I hadn't realised... there's not been a thing on the telly..... Those politicians are just too shy and retiring, they should try to promote themselves a bit more.

That's a bit too American, m'dear. And in these times, politicians don't want to draw attention unless they can somehow take credit for the rare positive development somehow. That's what being a politician is all about, it would seem; keeping the status quo, attending meetings and shuffling paperwork, and cashing in. Ah, but for another Venetian trade state... |

*opens door with a loud bang, walks across the smoking room muttering irratibly and precedes to sit in an onnocupied armchair, extracts a rather elderly looking cigar, lights, inhales, then assumes a contented expression usually only seen apon the faces of the mildly insane.*  |

*Swaggers in, looks around, arches eyebrow. Seats himself in a large armchair next to an old buffer who looks up irritated.*
Looks at the headline of the paper next to him,
"Fools! Humph, politicians banning liquor, what's next? Smoking a pipe in the club?!"

-She wanders in, pipe lit, and removes her lace gloves as she sits down.- Hmph. If they banned the two of those, they might as well just ban breathing. Banning liquor is one thing, but to ban smoking would just be cruel.
