Just a bad dancer

          "I was late for my dancing lessons."
          "I was going to ask you about that. What's this idea of your suddenly taking dancing lessons?"
          "Valerie insisted on it. She said I danced like a dromedary with the staggers."
          Pongo did not blame his sister. Indeed, in comparing her loved one to a dromedary with the staggers she had been, he thought, rather complimentary.
