What has Zonker started this time?

Zonker just corrupted a minor.

“Please”?

I nearly spit Theraflu on my monitor.

He’s turned her into Alfred, not Robin.

Hey, it’s our mother tongue. Not every Brit talks like a Cockney bum.

England and America are two countries separated by a common language.

Interesting. Would be nice if she picks up cockney slang while over there.

Yes, GEE1A. However:

“The precipitation in Portugal pelts primarily on the plateau.”

They’re speechless; that means yes! Same old American way of thinking! lol

‘ullo me covey, wot’s the row? ;-7

When my parents were rendered speechless, it was usually to think of a new way to say “no.”

I do say! Lord Zonker has done quite a smashing job, according to Samantha’s lovely performace. Why, she even said “Please”. And on the very first try, too. Good show, indeed.

However, we simply cannot overlook that he wishes for her to suspend seven days of schooling. Education is very important in a young child’s life, don’t you know?

Perhaps as penance, Samantha can write an essay on the event.

Zonker must be asexual, or he would have molested her a long time ago.
