--: Won't be long now, eh?

--: No good asking me. Bertram says Asquith and Lord Grey never discuss war in Cabinet. Not in front of the children. The Cabinet talks about women.

M: Women? Oh, oh, women.

--: Women and Ireland.

S: Mother's priest has turned her Republican.

M: That's just Sylvia pulling the strings of the shower bath.

--: What war, Glorvina?

--: It isn't going to be our war.

--: If it had been us and a tinpot country like Serbia, we'd have declared war three weeks ago.

--: Exactly. What are the Austrians waiting for?

C: For an assurance that Russia won't come in on the Serbian side and Russia's waiting for an assurance that Germany won't come in on the Austrian side.

--: There you are. No stomach for a fight. There's not going to be any war. This isn't our own chutney!
