Don stroked his courtier's beard ...



Can you get me the cheapest open return? 
I asked Don - 

Whilst Don was checking his screens, my eye was caught by the station library - 

There was a shelf of Sci Fi shockers by the rack of pocket timetables

Don looked more like a wary Tudor courtier than ever - 

The Weymouth train left platform 1 - 

I picked up a shiny horror called The Edge of Reason

Here you are Don said - a special offer - it will save you 11 quid

I'd made a point of always being respectful to Don - 

Cheers Don I said - 

Don stroked his courtier's beard - 

If you come back Saturday he said - there's works - a detour through Thames Ditton -
