John looked around the room – antique furniture everywhere, all with the familiar little plaques: Do not sit, just as in any museum.

– “Um… and where exactly can we?”

– “There. Sit on the nineteenth-century sofa. I keep telling the baron it’s high time to bring in a new one – this piece of museum property looks as though dusting it might cause it to collapse.”
