Having been shipwrecked and stranded on a tiny desert island for 25 years, Valerie and Foo-Foo were beginning to tire of their surroundings.
‘What’s for dinner?’ asked Foo-Foo
‘Fish,’ replied Valerie, slapping a plate of fish in front of Foo-Foo.
‘Again?’ Foo-Foo complained. ‘ But we had that last night and for the previous 9124 days.’
‘Listen, darling, (1). You’re welcome to eat at one of the other restaurants on the island.’
‘Well maybe I will!’ exclaimed Foo-Foo.
‘Maybe you will what? Lump it?’
‘Yes, just watch me - (2),’ she said, standing up and throwing the fish back into the sea. ‘There!’
‘(3) Foo-Foo Fontaine,’ declared Valerie, tucking into her own fish and laughing. ‘So shocking, I do declare.’
Foo-Foo sat back down again. ‘Do you remember when that half-eaten Snickers bar washed up on the beach? Now that was a meal.’
Valerie stopped chewing and looked wistfully into the distance. ‘Yes, Foo-Foo, I do remember. In fact, I’ll never forget it. We’ll not see (4) again.’
‘Valerie? Don’t look so pensive. Please. Now, tell me, what’s for breakfast tomorrow?’
Valerie turned back to Foo-Foo. ‘Fish, darling, fish.’
‘Again?’
‘Yes, Foo-Foo dearest. (5), you’re welcome to eat out....’
