'Here we are at last my Darling Daf,' Thomas grinned.

'Don't call me that,' retorted Daphne, 'you know I hate it and what do you mean here we are? Where!?' They were standing outside the entrance to an appartment block in a converted red brick building. 'Very nice,' continued Daphne, 'but I've seen this before and I'm hungry!'

'Do I get the impression that Daphne is feeling a little impatient with me?' teased Thomas.

'Stop messing around Thomas. How would you feel if I turned up out of the blue to see you? It feels strange that's all and I want to know what you're doing here'.

'Well come on in Daphne, and all will be revealed.' Thomas keyed in a security code, walked through the entrance door, and beckoned Daphne to follow him. 'Welcome to Chez moi!' Thomas smiled. 'Please take a seat - and dinner will be served!'
