"Well, here we are, in for another six months of caterwauling," he began complainingly. "Not a shade of difference between this year and last, except that the women have got new clothes and the singers haven't got new voices. My wife's musical, you know puts me through a course of this every winter. It isn't so bad on Italian nights then she comes late, and there's time to digest.
