What was she wearing? Scotch tweeds wasn't it?
Iris Henderson Oatmeal tweeds.

Come on, sit down, take it easy. What's the trouble?
Iris Henderson If you must know, something fell on my head.
When, infancy?
Can I help?
Iris Henderson Only by going away.
No, no, no, no. My father always taught me, never desert a lady in trouble. He even carried that as far as marrying Mother.
Iris Henderson I was having tea about an hour ago with an English lady. You saw her, didn't you?
Charters Well, I don't know, I mean, I was talking to my friend, wasn't I?
Caldicott Indubitably.
Iris Henderson Yes, but you were sitting at the next table. She turned and borrowed the sugar. You must remember.
Charters Yes, I recall passing the sugar.
Iris Henderson Well then you saw her.
Charters I repeat we were deep in conversation. We were discussing cricket.
Iris Henderson Well, I don't see how a thing like cricket can make you forget seeing people.
Charters Oh, don't you? If that's your attitude, there's nothing more to be said! Come Caldicott. "A thing like cricket!"
