Mrs. Tim Flies Home Quotes

Shut up, you little brutes.’ I began to feel old when I became a prefect,” adds Perry smiling ruefully. “You were beastly smug,” declares Bryan. “Lord, how I hated you that term!” “My responsibilities were very heavy,” says Perry laughing. The conversation continues on these lines. Anybody would think my companions were middle-aged at least. “Forty years on,” I tell them.”
