LArry would baulk at the idea of visiting yet another furniture shop. But Ann was insistent, so Larry plonked himself on a settee and picked up a banal magazine. He was just about to put it to one side when an advert for a canal holiday caught his attention. Upon Ann's return, Larry said excitedly "Let's sally forth into the unknown on this holiday", he said to Ann, pointing out the advert. When Ann expressed her misgivings, Larry said to Ann "Don't dally, you bally wally!" The rest of the day went badly after this ill-judged retort, with Ann demanding the car keys and heading off on her own. On his way back home Larry popped into the local store and purchased a huge bunch of flowers to make it up to Ann. "Oh what a manly gesture", said Ann and she gave him a big hug.
