The unctuous snuffurbling is annoying me.

I respect those who really feel grief at his loss; but I cannot share or understand their grief. What's he to them? Why?

He lived a life he loved, cared nothing about what others thought of him, and loved to kill animals for fun. I wonder how sporting he finds that game today.

Mum saw him in the back of a car driving through Devizes once. 'He gave me the eye,' she said, with the smiling confidence of a very pretty woman.

'Was he good looking?' Someone asked her.

'God! No!' She laughed.

Despite considering him as plain as a stick, she will be sorry to hear this news, and appalled that I simply do not care at all.

No surprise—I kinda liked the guy. 😊. If for no other reason than that he had an absolutely fascinating backstory.

Yes, I'll give him that, his back story was astonishing. And he doesn't seem to have lacked personal courage.
