My son Thomas is doing very well1 on the stage. He writes* and says that every night he plays a villager, a gypsy and two soldiers, Whereas the star of the play – a Mr Hamlet – only plays one part. A young man was sipping*2 in the lounge of a large hotel sipping a glass of punch. A little girl came* up to him and said: “What’s your name?” The young man told* her his name. “Are you married?” she asked. “No”, said the man. The little girl was quiet for a moment, then she turned to a woman standing* nearby3 and shouted: “What else did you tell* me to ask him, Mummy?” Young Jimmy was greedily eating* a bar of chocolate. His father said angrily: “I’ve told* you not to eat* between meals. Did you ask Mum if you could have that chocolate?”Yes”, said Jimmy. “Come on4, I want the truth.” A pause. – Yes, I did, and she said “No”. “The

спросила, мамочка? Маленький Джимми лакомился плиткой шоколада. Его отец сказал ему сердито: “Я говорил тебе, чтобы ты не ел между едой. Ты спрашивал у мамы, можно ли тебе съесть этот шоколад?” – Да, ответил Джимми. – Ну, я хочу [знать] правду. Тишина. – Да, я спрашивал и она сказала “Нет”. “Человек, который устал от Лондона, устал от жизни”. Доктор Джонсон.
