I am going to bed with Mrs. Crasthorpe.
I have been to bed with her before.
It was a most pleasant experience.
Her husband is dead. She is a free woman now.
She is fit and feisty and when she’s breathed in the briny air of Eastbourne, she loosens up and tells me.
She has generously full lips. blonde hair and grey-blue eyes and is the ripe old age of 59.
Nothing unseemly passes between us, however.
Sadly she is an invention of William Trevor.

Ha! I was so into this and then you got me. Well, in that same vein I’m headed to bed soon with Wesley from the Princess Bride. A favorite way to fall asleep with a smile.

They say that fictional people can’t match real people; I find that, with all the unsightly parts excised, they do quite well, thank you very much.

yes, the line just fell into place: it was fortuitous that ‘Trevor’ rhymed with ‘however’
