Erm, yes, half seven. I'm going to go and get ready
now anyway. I need to make myself look decent
don't I? You need to start soon as well Mr, I don't
want you looking all scruffy, you know what your
Nan's like. Make sure your trousers aren't hanging
down low either. Although, it seems to be your friend
