    He is every other inch a gentleman.
    —Rebecca West [Cicily Isabel Fairfield] (1892–1983)

    Sunday night meant, in the dark, wintry, rainy Midlands ... anywhere where two creatures might stand and squeeze together and spoon.... Spooning was a fine art, whereas kissing and cuddling are calf-processes.
