W.C.:
Well Miss Withering, how does it feel, comfortable?
Hortence Withering:
Yes I think so Mr Boggs.
W.C.:
Good, good. Comfort before beauty, that's what I always say.
Sid:
It a bit big in the bowl, ain't it?
Charles Coote:
It is only 2 centrementres more than our last model and I'm sure we shan't fall out over that.
Sid:
Its falling in I'm worried about!
W.C.:
No, no! I live your overall design Mr Coote.
Charles Coote:
Oh thank you Sir.
Hortence Withering:
May I get off now please?
W.C.:
Yes of course Mrs Withering, and thank you you have been most patient.
Sid:
Yes like Jove on a monument, and what a monument!
W.C.:
Yes, we must make sure that the catch is strong enough to support the seat.
Sid:
Do you mind if I try it?
W.C.:
No, go ahead.
Sid:
Yes I don't think I could stand it for more than half an hour.
Charles Coote:
It was hardly designed for a reading room!
Sid:
Ere... Look at this very slender this pedestle... Isn't it?
Charles Coote:
It's streamlined!
Sid:
What for, wind resistance?
Charles Coote:
In any case the thickness has nothing to do whatsoever with the tensile strength.
W.C.:
I hope your right Mr Coote. I have had bitter experience of what happens when one of these collapses, or rather my poor wife had, God rest her soul.
