V: You know I'm taking August in Scotland this year? What about you?
C: Sylvia's accepted to join the Duke's house party at his place in Northumberland.
V: You remember telling me once, two years ago at Rye, we'd be at war about the time the grouse 1 shooting began in 1914? Time's running out.
C: Yes, I'm afraid so. Make the most of Scotland. And do be circumspect 2. I know what it is that makes a man want to go away with a woman he likes. But that desire, which is to be allowed to finish his conversations with her, must be resisted.
V: Oh, Chrissie. What you know!
