It's all ready for you, my dear.
BED AND BREAKFAST
I was wondering about a room.
Here's your room. I do hope you'll like it.
Thank you.
They sound familiar.

I’m almost positive I’ve heard those names before somewhere. Isn’t that odd? Maybe it was in the newspapers. They weren’t famous in any way, were they? I mean famous cricketers or footballers or something like that?
Famous. Oh no, I don’t think they were famous. But they were incredibly handsome, both of them, I can promise you that. They were tall and young and handsome, my dear, just exactly like you.
They do? How interesting.
You really shouldn’t bother. I didn’t mean you to do anything like that.
But come over here now, dear, and sit down beside me on the sofa and I’ll give you a nice cup of tea and a ginger biscuit before you go to bed.
Temple. Gregory Temple.
It must be most awfully difficult to do a thing like that.
No, thank you.
Oh, yes.
That’s good. Because later on, if I happen to forget what you were called, then I could always come down here and look it up. I still do that almost every day with Mr. Mulholland and Mr. . . . Mr. . . .
You did sign the book, didn’t you?
Not in the least. I stuff all my little pets myself when they pass away. Will you have another cup of tea?
Excuse my asking, but haven’t there been any other guests here except them in the last two or three years?
No, my dear. Only you.
