Bad time?
‘Is this a bad time?’

‘I’m not allowed in the delivery room.’
‘They don’t know we’re coming – I want it to be a surprise!’
‘God rest ye merry gentlemen and ladies, non-binary, transgender, gender neutral, pan-gender, a-gender…’
‘It wasn’t until lockdown that I realised how little we have in common.’
‘I’ll have a vodka martini — shaken, not stirred — and a Scotch egg.’
‘Go on! You can have a pint with it.’
The long Black Friday
‘Today we’d like to shout to you about Jesus.’
‘He’s self-alienating.’
‘They gave their lives so that we could enjoy the freedom that we have today.’
‘Double, double, toil and trouble rule of six and support bubble…’
‘That’s an extra hour in bed lying awake worrying.’
‘We’re at the tipping point.’
‘Don’t snitch on them, dear – have a word with them first.’
