Love counts, but money counts more

     "Does love count for nothing? Surely you love me?"

    "Of course I do, my desert king. When you do that flat-footed Black Bottom step with the sort of wiggly twiggle at the end, I feel as if I were eating plovers' eggs in a new dress to the accompaniment of heavenly music." She sighed. "Yes, I love you, Lancelot. And women are not like men. They do not love lightly. When a woman gives her heart, it is for ever. The years will pass, and you will turn to another. But I shall not forget. However, as you haven't a bob in the world - " She beckoned to the hall-porter. "Margerison."

    "Your ladyship?"

    "Are the front steps clean?"

    "Yes, your ladyship."

    "Then throw Mr. Mulliner out."
