The Diary of a Nobody
·
George Grossmith Weedon Grossmith

Sarah
came
up,
and
said
it
was
Mrs.
Murray
Posh
and
Mr.
Lupin.
This
was
quite
a
relief.
I
went
down
with
Carrie,
and
Lupin
met
me
with
the
remark:
“I
say,
what
did
you
run
away
from
the
window
for?
Did
we
frighten
you?”
I
foolishly
said:
“What
window?”
Lupin
said:
“Oh,
you
know.
Shut
it.
You
looked
as
if
you
were
playing
at
Punch
and
Judy.”
On
Carrie
asking
if
she
could
offer
them
anything,
Lupin
said:
“Oh,
I
think
Daisy
will
take
on
a
cup
of
tea.
I
can
do
with
a
B.
and
S.”
I
said:
“I
am
afraid
we
have
no
soda.”
Lupin
said:
“Don’t
bother
about
that.
You
just
trip
out
and
hold
the
horse;
I
don’t
think
Sarah
understands
it.”
They
stayed
a
very
short
time,
and
as
they
were
leaving,
Lupin
said:
“I
want
you
both
to
come
and
dine
with
me
next
Wednesday,
and
see
my
new
place.
Mr.
and
Mrs.
Murray
Posh,
Miss
Posh
(Murray’s
sister)
are
coming.
Eight
o’clock
sharp.
No
one
else.”
I
said
we
did
not
pretend
to
be
fashionable
people,
and
would
like
the
dinner
earlier,
as
it
made
it
so
late
before
we
got
home.
Lupin
said:
“Rats!
You
must
get
used
to
it.
If
it
comes
to
that,
Daisy
and
I
can
drive
you
home.”
We
promised
to
go;
but
I
must
say
in
my
simple
mind
the
familiar
way
in
which
Mrs.
Posh
and
Lupin
addressed
each
other
is
reprehensible.
Anybody
would
think
they
had
been
children
together.
I
certainly
should
object
to
a
six
months’
acquaintance
calling
my
wife
“Carrie,”
and
driving
out
with
her.
