An overheard thing

[sawyl]

On the day that the Graun carried an article on the annoying noisiness of the UK, I overheard or rather simply heard, for I could hardly have failed to hear given the volume at which it was said, the following exchange:

First Person:	What? You've picked up a 20 year old bird?
Second Person:	[Sounding completely awed] That's amazing
Third Person:	[Mumblingly confirms the fact]
First Person:	Cradle snatcher! You'll never be able to keep up. She'll kill you!

Unfortunately, this sort of thing is typical of the archivistas — they seem to have something of a unique talent for disruption.
