Old Fashioned Values

"Did I tell you what Bezley told me about her and Ern getting married?"

"Don't think so."

"Apparently she was all for living together, didn't see the need to get married, but he insisted..."

"What - because of Baby Girl?"

"Exactly. [Attempts a deep voice.] 'Oh no, no, no...I couldn't do that to my Baby Girl.'"

[Laughter.] "God, he was nuts, wasn't he?"

"That goes without saying. But I'm spewing - I could have spent all Year 12 wandering around talking about how my dad and his girlfriend were shacked up."
