Stella: Why, Blanche, it sure is hot in here.

Blanch: (Fanning herself with a copy of The Manchester Evening news) It sure is Stella. Hot and humid. It’s especially hot considering we’re sat here in the little ol’ county palatine of Lancashire.

Stella: (Slumping down further into her chair) Why Blanche it’s so hot I might just take my flat cap off.

Blanche: Yeah, Stella and I jus’ might take off ma duffle coat before I take a bath.
