The benefit of Mr Bolt

While I was talking to my parents on the phone, my nephew offered the following fine off-stage Tintin reference:

Pater: ...and we still don't have a kitchen floor, despite the salesman promising your mother that it would be done by the weekend.
Me: I bet he didn't say which weekend though...
Nephew: [ in the background ] Grandpa, isn't the floor man just like Mr Bolt in the The Castafiore Emerald?

Both perfectly appropriate, wonderfully funny and supremely geeky. I just love the fact that he loves Tintin every bit as much as I did/do...
