"I see, and will Mrs Gregory be bringing an escort?"
"No"
"Very well, I'll put her on the list and send the invitation out right away Tell Laura I look forward to seeing her It has been ages"

Seated at the end of the table, Jackie asked, "Why was Mathew in the papers?"
Carl kept his eyes on the monitor as he scrolled down a list of entries "He plays handball at the country club when he's ho," said Michael "He looks too thin to do ood at handball"
