"So what? Over there is your gear, Two-and-Two go get it!" Frank shouted into his phone, the receiver of which was now full of sounds a moaning grunt, a vast hiccuping, shouts, exhortations.

Florrie, moving backwards, had now got nearly to the scullery door with her wringing and splashing and wiping; and she had dirtied even her face.
