About: "Have you seen the ball-gowns at Kate Reily's?" asks Lady Augustina. "No, but I have bought four tailor-mades at So-and-So's," replies Lady Constantina in a delightful Ollendorfian[sic] irrelevancy, after which Mrs. Greygreen descants on the absurdly cheap silks at Peter Robinson's, while Mrs. Greengrey dilates on the curtains that are going a-begging at Maple's. It is all true, every word of it, and these beneficiaries of the different sales will defend their pet shops with the chattering ardour of jackdaws.       Sponge   NotDistinct   Permalink
