Re: around 5.45 pm and to dinner
"Yeah," Roger commiserated. "I've got to go over the playbook. Coach is convinced our codes were broken last season, so it's all new. Not the plays so much, just the code names." But Roger had an excellent memory so it wouldn't be a problem.
"Is it my turn or yours?" he asked Pucey when the waitress brought the bill. "And what are you doing tonight?" he asked her.
She giggled and said, "Going home all alone to my flat, in about ten minutes."
"It would be my pleasure as well as my duty to escort you," Roger pulled a serious, sincere, and dependable face.
