The Princess was so delighted to be reunited with her younger brothers after their sojourn in Cork, she began to “read” to them “Thomas Comes to Breakfast”. As I was watching them indulgently I was startled to hear the following:
“Don’t be so silly,” said Percy.
“I’d never go without my Driver” said Toby earnestly. “I’d be frightened.”
“Pooh!” boasted Thomas. “I’ll show you bastards.”
