Wife: “What have you got there?”
Me: “Dunno. Pegs. They look like pegs”
“Pegs?”
“Yes. They’re definitely pegs. Clothes pegs”
“Why have you bought pegs?”
“I can’t remember buying pegs”
“Well I didn’t order any pegs. Why would we order pegs? We live in a second floor flat”
“They’re quite pretty though. For pegs, I mean. Colourful”
“Yes they look nice. Were you on the computer last Friday night when you got home from the pub?”
“Emm… I might have been. Why?”
“Well you were drunk. You wouldn’t have ordered pegs on Amazon?”
“Probably not. Why would I order pegs?”
“Because you were drunk”
“No. I wouldn’t order pegs”
“You were VERY drunk. You were sick on the cat. Do you remember?”
“Not really. No”
“How much did the pegs cost?”
“Um… it says here £7.65″
“For 24 pegs?”
“Yes”
“That’s 30p per peg or something”
“Is it? I don’t know how much pegs should cost. Is that good?”
“I’ve no idea”
“They are quite nice. Colourful”
“Yes”
